Returns Policy

Refunds are only offered for faulty or damaged items.

Please note that when dealing with handmade items and naturally dyed items, there will always be a degree of imperfection in each design. Typically, small printed imperfections and dye lot variations are not considered a fault and will not result in a refund or exchange.

If you believe your item is faulty, you will need to submit a request with photographs of the fault within 7 days of receiving your order. The item/s must be in their original condition, with the original packaging and tags still attached. Item/s must not have been used, washed or altered in any way. It is at the discretion of Bandhini to decide the severity of the fault and the means in which it will be resolved.

As a small, environmentally conscious company supplying handmade items and committed to reducing waste, we will generally opt to repair your item whenever possible. If repair is not possible and we have the item or one similar in stock we will opt to exchange, if neither of these options are possible we provide you with a full refund for your faulty item.

***Please note we do not offer returns or refunds for sale items.

 

Returns

For a 'change of mind' we offer an exchange or store credit valid for 12 months. Your returns request must be placed within 7 days of receiving your items. The item/s must be in their original condition, with the original packaging and tags still attached. 

For a ‘change of mind’  you will be responsible for the shipping costs to return and resend the exchanged item.

***Please note we do not offer returns or refunds for sale items or made to order.

 

Cancellations

Please choose carefully as cancellations are generally not accepted.

We do not refund for cancellations for any backordered or made to order items. In this circumstance we consider this a ‘change of mind’ and will only offer an exchange or store credit. All artwork orders are strictly no cancellation as they are all custom made and framed.

If you have a specific deadline to receive your items please call our Customer Service Team or email us at customerservice@bandhinidesign.com prior to ordering to ensure your items can be processed and dispatched in time.
