Stock

It may happen – although on very seldom occasions – that the item you have just ordered has recently been sold, or is temporarily out of stock at the manufacturer. If such a case occurs, we immediately find out how long it will take to have another item made and sent to us.

If the item is unavailable for a long period of time or has been discontinued by the artist, we’ll contact you within 3 days of your original order and give you the option of waiting for the item or choosing something else instead.

In order to be fair, in a case like this, we do not process payment until we’ve heard back from you. If you decide you want to cancel your order – we will honor you wishes, cancel the order and not charge you – of course. We appreciate your understanding and hope to be able to provide you with exactly what you’re looking for next time.

Updates

Baltinester Jewelry may occasionally revise these terms & Conditions. When we do, we’ll change the “last updated” date on this page. We encourage you to check this page periodically for updates.

Copyright

All pictures, descriptions, and any other content that appears on our website are the sole property of Baltinester Jewelry.

If you wish to use any content for personal non-commercial use, please contact us with your request and we’ll be happy to oblige. Any use of content from the Baltinester Jewelry website without permission is infringement and considered a felony punishable by law.

Ordering a custom-made item?

At Baltinester Jewelry we’re always happy to create custom-made orders for our clientele. We do it with the greatest of pleasure so that you – the customer – can have the jewelry you’ve always dreamed of.

We work with a team of exceptionally talented local artists who put all their might into creating custom designs whenever we receive such a request from a customer.

We, Baltinester Jewelry, are in touch with these artists, discuss with them the best way of designing and executing the custom ordered piece, give further input on the design during the manufacturing process, and give the final ok on the item, until the customer’s general idea transforms into a physical, detailed, actual piece of Jewelry.

In addition to what has been explained so far, sometimes custom-made designs include extra expenses that you – the customer – will never hear about. This is because it is not our policy to charge the customer extra for such expenses (cost of a jewelry mold, for example, and other changing expenses depending on the ordered item).

Based on all of the above, copyright on custom-made orders belongs solely, and by law – automatically, to Baltinester Jewelry and the artist who created the actual item. This is our right and it is founded and supported by Israeli law. As such, we do not guarantee that we will not create nor sell matching or similar items to the custom-made item requested by the customer.

Nevertheless, if you wish to have an absolutely one-of-a-kind custom made order, we will be more than happy to discuss satisfactory compensation for the unique item, provided it is discussed prior to the manufacturing process. This enables us to calculate the price of the requested item in a manner that is fair to you – the customer, us – Baltinester Jewelry, and the local artist. Once such an agreement is reached, we pledge neither to create nor sell items that are identical to the item you’ve ordered and received.

We wish to emphasize that a general idea for a piece of jewelry relayed to us either orally or verbally by email, fax, or other form of communication – is considered just that: a general idea or impression of something that might, or might not, be created at some future time.

There are many generic ideas for jewelry in the marketplace today and we cannot, and will not, create custom-orders on the assumption that a mere idea or notion is grounds for copyright. On the contrary, the actual creation of a three dimensional piece of jewelry by our artists is grounds for copyright, along with Baltinester Jewelry’s input on different parameters of the said item (length, width, thickness, base-material, finish, and other jewelry-making parameters we see fit, according to our expert opinion of over 60 years.)

We sincerely appreciate our customers and are willing to go great length in order to insure your satisfaction; however we respectfully request your understanding and cooperation on this matter of copyright of custom-made orders.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us– either via email or by phone – and we will be more than happy to answer any questions.

Product Information

At Baltinester Jewelry we invest a great deal of time and effort into each item we sell. Pictures are carefully taken, dimensions are measured, and descriptions are as detailed as possible in order to present you with the most authentic reflection of the product you’re interested in.

However, due to different lighting, coloring, and capabilities of your computer screen, there may be cases where the actual item you receive is not an exact copy of the displayed picture on the website.

For example, ancient additions to jewelry such as ancient coins or roman glass – while being 100% authentic and chosen carefully by expert to ensure the finest quality – may differ in hue or detail from piece to piece because of climatic conditions, how long the element was buried underground before excavated etc.

We do our very best to be accurate but sometimes mistakes happen. We apologize in advance if you find any mistakes in color, dimensions, or details. If you come across such a mistake, we will make sure to rectify it to your satisfaction. We appreciate your understanding.

When you shop online we know there are many stores to choose from. Thank you for choosing us.

In the event that we make a change to or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail and/or billing address/phone number provided at the time the order was made.
