To place an international order, please contact our customer service department at mainoffice@patareias.com or call us at (831) 626-8668. Shipping cost will vary by location.

REPAIR POLICY

We stand behind the quality of our merchandise and do our best to accommodate repair requests.  Due to the nature of our products, some components may not be repairable. The cost of a repair varies depending on the item and specific damage. 

Should you need a repair on one of your Pat Areias pieces please contact us via email or phone, as it will be dealt with on a case by case basis. Email us at mainoffice@patareias.com  or call (831) 626-8668 to arrange a repair on your Pat Areias piece.

Photo submission may be required for your repair request both in store and online.

For your protection, we recommend that you insure the package for the purchase amount. Pat Areias Inc. is not responsible for items damaged or lost in transit. 

As a courtesy, we clean and polish all pieces we repair and therefore recommend sending sets together (like 3 piece buckle sets and both earrings--even if only one element is in need of repair).

 

LEAD TIMES

Each Pat Areias piece is individually handmade. Very frequently, we have the items on your order in stock. However, occasionally the item will need to be made at the time of order. Our lead time is between 1-5 weeks depending on the item.  We understand how difficult shopping online can often be, so if you have any questions regarding a specific item's availability, or you need something that's available right away, please contact us--we're glad to help!
