What if an item breaks during shipping?

I work hard to wrap and package items so they are protected during shipping. These are fragile items, however, and accidents happen. If an item arrives damaged, please contact me for a replacement with the following information: 1. A picture of the damaged, original packaging with the piece still in it. 2. A picture of the damaged piece. After receiving the pictures I will ship a replacement item. If it was a custom item, I will send a picture of the replacement for your approval before shipping. Requests for replacements will be refused without the required pictures.

Are the item pictures representations or the actual item?

Both! The picture type is listed in the item description. For smaller items, such as mugs, small bowls, spoon rests, etc., the pictures are representations. The pictures are selected to accurately display the style, size and shape of the item. The glaze images accurately represent the color options. Of course, each item is handmade and will vary slightly from the item in the representative picture. I can send an image of the actual item before shipping upon request. For larger unique items, such as serving platters, decorative wall pieces, and all custom orders, the pictures are of the actual item. These are one-of-a-kind pieces that require one-of-a-kind images.

Are shipping prices an estimate or exact?

Shipping prices are estimated based on the size of the purchased item and the buyer's location. Actual shipping costs may be less than the automated estimate. Differences of more than $2 between actual cost and the charged estimate will be refunded to the buyer. Shipping costs will not exceed the estimated costs included in buyer's payment.

*****Return Shipping*****

**RETURN POLICY** Although I make every effort to represent my pieces accurately, occasionally there may be a reasonable return. I will do my best to satisfy the customer. There are no refunds on custom pieces. Buyer will be responsible for the return shipping costs. Please be sure and use the original packaging to ensure that the pottery will return safely home. Refunds are processed once I recieve items and in thier original condition. Customers are responsible for any loss of value. ***FREE SHIPPING GUARANTEE*** Free shipping guarantee is for the original shipping label only. If there is a problem with shipping due to buyer error or misinformation, buyer is responsible for any additional or extra shipping costs.

This is a functional work of art! I bought it for my husband for his 60th birthday and he absolutely loves it. The quality is outstanding, the shiping was fast and, most importantly, this butter holder is exceptionally beautiful. I'm very happy with my purchase.

The butter keeper is beautiful. The colors or the glaze are lovely and it seems stable when butter side up as well as when in storage mode. We are looking forward to using it daily! It was packed very carefully and didn't take too long to arrive.

We have tried a few hand-thrown butter crocks and this one is by far the most beautiful and functional. While the listing says it will fit one stick of butter, I am fairly sure you could do two if you wanted. The glaze is stunning, the shape is aesthetically pleasing, and the crock was carefully packaged to ensure there was no damage during shipping. I would gladly buy from this seller again.

It is exactly what I wanted. Someone would have had to play soccer with the package for it to maybe get damaged. I use the lines on the inside of the cup to judge the water depth. Nice!
