3. Scope
These Terms and Conditions govern the sale of products offered on the Site, including clothing, jewelry, accessories, made-to-order pieces, pre-order items and limited releases.
They apply to consumers and non-professional buyers.
If a customer purchases as a professional, certain consumer protection rules may not apply.
4. Products
The products offered on the Site are described as accurately as possible.
Product images, photographs, videos, colors, textures, finishes, measurements and visual representations are provided for information purposes. Slight variations may occur due to screen settings, lighting, handmade processes, dyeing, finishing, patina, oxidation, fabric behavior, printing, washing or artisanal production.
Such variations do not constitute defects where they are inherent to the nature of the product, its materials or its production process.
The customer is responsible for reviewing the product description, size information, material information, production method, care instructions and any applicable condition before placing an order.
5. Jewelry
All jewelry pieces are made to order unless stated otherwise.
Jewelry production generally takes 4 to 6 weeks from order confirmation, before dispatch. This timeframe includes production, finishing, quality control and preparation for shipment.
Production time is separate from shipping time. Shipping time begins only once the order has been dispatched.
Jewelry pieces may present slight variations in texture, engraving depth, surface marks, patina, oxidation, polishing or finishing. These variations are inherent to artisanal production and do not constitute defects.
The customer is responsible for selecting the correct ring size. The ring size guide available on the Site is provided for informational purposes only and is not a guaranteed sizing tool. We strongly recommend having your ring size measured by a professional jeweler before placing an order.
Some rings cannot be resized due to their structure, motif, engraving, patina, oxidation or surface treatment. Resizing, when technically possible and requested due to customer sizing error, may be subject to additional costs, return shipping costs and reshipping costs.
6. Clothing
Clothing items may be available in stock, made to order, offered as pre-orders or released as limited drops.
The customer is responsible for selecting the correct size based on the information available on the Site.
Slight differences in measurements, texture, color, dyeing, print placement, wash effect, surface treatment, finishing or fabric behavior may occur where they are inherent to handmade, artisanal, dyed, washed, printed or treated garments.
Such variations do not constitute defects unless the product is materially different from the description or non-conforming under applicable law.
7. Made-to-Order, Pre-Order and Custom Items
Some products are made to order or offered as pre-orders.
For made-to-order and pre-order items, production begins after order confirmation.
Production time, processing time and shipping time are separate.
A made-to-order or pre-order item that is standard, not personalized and not produced according to specific customer requirements may remain subject to the legal right of withdrawal for customers located in France or within the European Union, where applicable.
However, the right of withdrawal does not apply to products made according to the customer’s specifications or clearly personalized.
This includes, without limitation:

Once production has started on a personalized, custom-made, made-to-measure or customer-specific item, the order cannot be cancelled, returned, exchanged or refunded, unless the item is defective, damaged, incorrect or non-conforming.
These items are final sale once production has started, unless defective, damaged, incorrect or non-conforming.

In case of obvious pricing error, we reserve the right to cancel the order and refund the customer.
10. Payment
Payment is due immediately at the time of order.
Available payment methods are displayed at checkout.
All payments are processed in euros. If the customer’s bank account or payment method uses another currency, the customer’s bank or payment provider may apply its own exchange rate and fees. We are not responsible for currency conversion fees, bank fees or payment provider charges.
Payments are processed securely by third-party payment providers. We do not store full payment card details.
For made-to-order, pre-order, personalized or custom-made items, payment is taken when the order is placed.
The order will not be processed until payment has been confirmed.

Nothing in this section affects the customer’s statutory rights regarding delivery.
13. Risk Transfer
For consumer customers, the risk of loss or damage transfers to the customer when the customer or a third party designated by the customer physically takes possession of the products, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
If the customer chooses a carrier that was not offered by us, the risk may transfer when the products are handed over to that carrier, in accordance with applicable law.

We strongly recommend having your ring size measured by a professional jeweler before placing an order.
The customer is responsible for selecting the correct ring size. A wrong size selected by the customer is not considered a product defect.
If a sizing error is caused by us, we will cover the correction and related shipping costs.
If the sizing error is caused by the customer, resizing may be offered depending on technical feasibility, material, structure, design, engraving, patina, oxidation or surface treatment. In such cases, resizing costs, return shipping costs and reshipping costs remain the customer’s responsibility.
Some rings cannot be resized due to their structure, motif, engraving, oxidation, patina or surface treatment. In such cases, no resizing or exchange can be guaranteed.
9. Exchanges
We do not guarantee exchanges.
Exchanges may be offered depending on stock availability, production feasibility and the nature of the item.

Shipping Policy
Each order is prepared with care. This Shipping Policy explains how production, processing, shipment, customs and delivery issues are handled for orders placed on nicephoreimanuur.com.
For any question regarding your order, please contact us at info@nicephoreimanuur.com.
1. Shipping Destinations
We offer worldwide shipping to most countries.
Certain destinations may be unavailable due to logistical, legal, carrier or customs restrictions. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel shipment to any destination where delivery is not possible or legally permitted.
2. Production Methods
Some items may be available in stock. Other items are made to order or offered as pre-orders.
Production time, processing time and shipping time are separate.
For in-stock items, orders are usually prepared and dispatched within 7 business days after order confirmation.
For made-to-order or pre-order items, production begins after order confirmation. Production times may vary depending on the item, material availability, production schedule, complexity, finishing process, quality control and order volume.
The estimated production timeframe will be indicated before checkout or in the relevant product information.
3. Jewelry Production Time
All jewelry pieces are made to order unless stated otherwise.
Jewelry production generally takes 4 to 6 weeks from order confirmation, before dispatch. This timeframe includes production, finishing, quality control and preparation for shipment.
Production time is separate from shipping time. Shipping time begins only once the order has been dispatched.
In some cases, production may take longer due to the complexity of the piece, material availability, finishing process, quality control or order volume. If a significant delay occurs, we will contact you by email.
4. Processing and Dispatch
Processing includes order verification, payment approval, quality control, packaging and preparation for shipment.
Orders placed on weekends or public holidays are processed on the next business day.
Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with tracking information.
5. Delivery Times After Dispatch
Estimated delivery times after dispatch are generally:
France: 2 to 5 business days
European Union: 3 to 7 business days
International: 5 to 15 business days, depending on destination and customs clearance
These timeframes are estimates only and may vary depending on the carrier, destination, customs clearance, local postal services, strikes, weather events or circumstances beyond our control.
This does not affect your statutory rights regarding delivery.
6. Shipping Fees
Shipping fees are calculated and displayed at checkout according to your delivery country, order value and selected shipping method.
For high-value orders, we may use tracked, insured or signature-required delivery services.
7. Customs Duties and Import Taxes
For orders shipped outside the European Union, customs duties, import taxes, brokerage fees and any related charges may be applied by the destination country.
These charges are the customer’s responsibility and are not included in the product price or shipping cost unless expressly stated otherwise at checkout.
We have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount.
If a package is refused due to unpaid customs duties, import taxes or related charges, any return shipping costs, carrier fees, customs charges or related costs billed to us may be deducted from any refund where permitted by law.
8. Tracking
Once your order has been shipped, you will receive a confirmation email with tracking information.
For international shipments, tracking updates may vary depending on the destination country and local carrier.
9. Delivery Address
The customer is responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address at checkout.
We are not responsible for failed delivery caused by an incorrect, incomplete or outdated address provided by the customer.
If a package is returned to us due to an incorrect or incomplete address, customer unavailability, failure to collect the package, refusal of delivery or any issue caused by the customer, the customer will be responsible for return shipping fees, reshipping fees, carrier fees, storage fees and any related costs.
10. Address Changes
If you need to request a shipping address change after placing an order, please contact us immediately at info@nicephoreimanuur.com.
We will do our best to update the address before dispatch, but we cannot guarantee that changes can be made once the order has been processed, packed or shipped.
11. Failed Delivery and Unclaimed Packages
If delivery fails because the customer is unavailable, refuses delivery, does not collect the package, or provides incorrect or incomplete shipping information, the package may be returned to us or held by the carrier.
In such cases, the customer is responsible for any return shipping costs, reshipping costs, carrier fees, storage fees, customs charges or related costs.
12. Lost Packages
If tracking shows that your package has not moved for an unusual period, please contact us at info@nicephoreimanuur.com. We will assist with the carrier investigation.
If tracking shows that your package has been delivered but you have not received it, please contact us promptly. We will assist with the carrier investigation.
We are not responsible for theft, loss or damage occurring after confirmed delivery to the shipping address, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

We recommend inspecting your package upon delivery.
If the package or item appears damaged, please contact us as soon as possible, preferably within 48 hours, at info@nicephoreimanuur.com.
Please include your order number, photographs of the damaged item, photographs of the packaging and any relevant delivery information.
If the item is defective, damaged, incorrect or non-conforming, we will provide an appropriate solution in accordance with applicable law, which may include repair, replacement, correction or refund.
14. Delivery Delays
Carrier transit times are estimates and may vary after dispatch.
We are not responsible for delays caused exclusively by carriers, customs clearance, local postal services, strikes, natural disasters, pandemics, customer unavailability, incorrect shipping information or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
If an unusual delay occurs, please contact us and we will assist in investigating the shipment with the carrier.
