AFTER SALES
Francesca Bianchi Design jewelry and other products are covered by a two-year warranty against manufacturing defects from the date of shipment. The warranty is provided by the product's purchase receipt.
The following are strictly excluded from the warranty: discoloration of the plating or color of the jewelry (especially due to the use of perfumes or detergents) resulting from wear and tear and aging of the products or jewelry. Warranty repairs must be performed by Francesca Bianchi Design. Any technical tampering performed outside of Francesca Bianchi Design will void the warranty.
Absolutely yes.
For online purchases, please contact the dedicated support team at the Francesca Bianchi Design e-shop only. Contact us at info@francescabianchidesign.it and remember that it is essential to attach the purchase receipt to the product, as it constitutes its warranty.
Of course! Francesca Bianchi Design will send you a quote based on your request.
To ensure the longevity of your jewelry, it's important to always store it in its box when not in use. Polish gently with a soft cloth at least once a month. Avoid contact with liquids, alcohol, and perfumes, which could damage the jewelry and dull the enamel, as well as voiding the warranty. For rings and bangles, gently loosen or tighten the bracelet, especially at low temperatures, to avoid chipping the enamel.
