Damages and Issues
Please inspect your order upon reception and contact us within 48 hours if you receive a defective, damaged, or incorrect item. Provide a detailed description and photographic evidence by emailing hello@essencegeneva.com. We do not accept returns for items purchased due to variations in color, texture, minor bubbles, or surface spots. These characteristics are inherent to the handmade nature of our products and are considered part of the unique creation process. Each piece is individually crafted, ensuring no two products are exactly alike.
​
Lost or Stolen Parcels
Once your order is shipped, we cannot accept responsibility for lost or stolen parcels. We do not issue replacements or refunds for items marked as "delivered" by postal services or unclaimed due to unpaid customs. If your package is marked as "delivered" but you have not received it, please contact us immediately.
​
To qualify for an insurance claim for lost packages, you must have purchased a tracked shipping service. Please reach out to us at hello@essencegeneva.com within 15 days from the date the package was marked as "delivered."
​
Parcels Returned to Sender
If a package is returned to us due to delivery issues, the customer is responsible for the re-shipping costs. Refunds are not possible for these cases, and Essence will not accept any postal fees upon receiving returned parcels.
