Step 1: Measure your wrist just below the wrist bone, where one would normally wear a bracelet, with a flexible measuring tape or a strip of paper.

Step 2: If you are using a plain strip of paper, then measure that paper strip with a ruler to determine your wrist size.

Step 3: Add 1cm to 2cm to your wrist size, depending on whether you would like a snug, comfort, or loose fit. This is the ideal bracelet length for you.

Step 1: Measure your ankle just above the ankle bone, where one would normally wear an anklet, with a flexible measuring tape or a strip of paper.

We recommend to store your jewellery in the boxes you receive it in, they are designed with an anti-tarnish cotton filling to help protect your precious creations.

We only use 925 sterling silver, strong stainless steel beading wire and the highest quality semi-precious crystals for all of our jewellery. For longevity we recommend taking your pieces off while sleeping, bathing, showering, swimming or undertaking any other sporting activities, as semi-precious stones will take on moistures from their environment. Hair spray, perfumes, chemicals and soaps can damage and discolour the beautiful creations.

In the unfortunate event that your jewellery is broken, we are happy to help.

If this happens within our three month warranty period, we will cover the cost of repair. If your jewellery is outside our warranty period, there may be a fee associated with the repair.

Please get in touch at aloha@houseofaloha.com.au to arrange repair.

If you have lost an earring in most circumstances we can replace a single earring. We may ask you to send the mate to us, so we can better match it for you. The cost for one earring is typically half of the cost for the pair.

Please get in touch at aloha@houseofaloha.com.au to arrange replacement.

Your jewellery is warranted for 3 months from the date of shipping against any defects, or if your jewellery arrives in less than perfect condition due to mishandling. The 3 month warranty does not cover scratches, dullness of metals or stones, or jewellery that has been stolen, lost, dropped or damaged in any other way.

To claim a warranty, please email aloha@houseofaloha.com.au with a description of what happened, a photo and your order number, so we can review it.

You can see the full warranty details here.
