Important
Your natural materials which we work with, such as cremation ashes, hair, and milk, all come in an array of tones and colours. Your inclusion materials are as unique as you are, and vary from person to person. What you see on our website is an example of the design, however, the main stone will always vary in textures and colours.
We don't add anything to change the colour or consistency to your provided materials unless you are choosing effects such as flecks & shimmers.
Flecks and shimmers dance around and settle in their own way, a way we can not predict or change. We don’t see these as flaws or imperfections. We see them as unique and amazing just like the inclusions you send us.
Please note we have a no-refunds policy and as such we encourage you to read our FAQ page and ask any questions PRIOR to ordering

My jewellery doesn't look exactly like the one on the website..
This is absolutely normal! All natural elements we work with is as individual as you are. Colours of all inclusions vary from person to person, so there will never be one which looks exactly like the next. The use of shimmers and flecks may also not give the exact same effects or colour, but this is one of the reasons your keepsake is so special. It can never be exactly replicated.
What about slight imperfections within the inclusion stone?
What if I receive my package and I do not like it?
Why does it take so long?
Please be aware that each piece of handmade jewellery takes time.
We care dearly about our customers and their heart felt possessions. If you feel overly anxious about allowing another person to handle your personal items at this time, then perhaps wait until you are most comfortable in doing so.
Thank you and we hope you enjoy the Beyond The Willow Tree experience..
