For US addresses, I ship via USPS. If you wish to upgrade to Express shipping, or FedEx, please contact me for a price quote. Everything is sent insured, and purchases over $100 will require a signature at the time of delivery.
******
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I will, happily, ship internationally. Please note that all customs forms will be marked "Merchandise" with the correct price listed. The receiver will be responsible for all taxes and/or fees. If shipping turns out to be less than I have charged you, I will ALWAYS reimburse the difference!

Please don't ask me to mark "gift" , or list a value less than the item's purchase price, on the customs form. This puts me in a really uncomfortable, and illegal, position.

*Some of my European buyers have gotten back to me with troubling stories of being charged astronomically high fees on their purchases.

*PLEASE* check the fee you will be charged by your country before purchasing an item from me! Buying jewelry should be a pleasure, and I don't want anyone to have an awful surprise waiting for them in regards to taxes and fees.

*******
MEXICO: I'm delighted to ship to Mexico! Purchases that are more than $100 will be sent via FedEx International, thus the increased cost of shipping.

SPAIN: Orders $100 or more will be sent via USPS Priority Mail, or can be upgraded to FedEx. If you'd like the latter please contact me for pricing.

I aim to represent my jewelry as accurately as possible. Measurements are given in the description and I photograph all pieces with either a coin, human model or dress form to give a sense of scale.
When photographing my work I use full spectrum lights, or natural light, to represent the colors as realistically as possible. That said, colors will vary from computer to computer: my purple may not be your purple.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me: I am extremely convo friendly!
******
With proper care, any jewelry purchased from me should last for decades, if not generations.
*I recommend polishing with a soft cloth
*Please limit your jewelry's exposure to water, chemicals. abrasive surfaces. If you live in a very humid environment, I highly recommend storing your pieces in anti-tarnish bags when not being worn.
*I'm honored when buyers tell me that they never take a piece off, but constant wear just isn't good for jewelry. Exposure to bathing products, water, even the changing PH of our skin can all adversely affect jewelry's appearance.
*This is especially true for plated pieces: please be mindful of what they are exposed to. I use micron plating, which should last for years with proper care, but constant wear, and exposure to everything mentioned above will hasten the wearing away of the plating. I will not be held responsible should that occur.

******
I will reserve one piece per customer for up to a week.

NOTE TO RE-SELLERS: If you wish to sell my work in your on-line shop I just ask that "Lura Jewelry" be used somewhere in the piece's description. Thank you.
