Credit Notes are the customer's responsibility to hold onto and keep safe. It's the Credit Note holder's responsibility to take care of their credit note as though it were a gift certificate, both of which are not replaceable. CMD assumes no responsibility for lost or stolen store credit notes or gift certificates.
Jewellery Care:
Different metal materials require different types of care and storage between wears. Metals like brass and sterling silver may oxidize if not stored and instead left in open air, like in a jewellery dish for example. When this happens do not worry, you can polish your items back to its original finish with a treated jewellery polish cloth, and for more stubborn oxidation cases you may want to use a cream polish such as Brasso or Silvo, which are available at most hardware stores or on Amazon.
When wearing your jewels, be sure to avoid contact with hair products and skincare products, as the oils in these types of products can cause the surface finish of your jewellery to lose shine faster, which will need to be polished to be brought back to its original finish.
Best practices for your brass and silver jewellery would be to polish your jewellery after each wear with a soft treated jewellery polishing cloth, and then store in an air tight small zip lock bag.
Jewellery Repairs:
Be sure to provide us with your purchase receipt or be able to provide proof of purchase so we can assess the length of time the items has been worn before needing the repair. Within 3 months of purchase we can usually honor a free repair or a replacement depending on the conditions of the item needing the repair. Longer than 3 months there could be a fee based on the time and resources required to complete the repair, but will be assessed on a case by case basis as many factors can be involved in the reason for the repair. Repair requests without a receipt or proof of purchase will be quoted as though it is out of the 3 month warranty period
Some brands and designers will have individual warranties for repair and we will always honour what the designer offers and will work with them to have the item repaired.
