Terms of Use
This website is owned and operated by Carra Terra, a division of Rebecca Marie Art INC. These Terms set forth the terms and conditions under which you may use our website and services as offered by us. This website offers visitors the opportunity to purchase handmade ceramics goods. By accessing or using the website of our service, you approve that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.
Refunds & Exchanges
All sales are final. We are unable to offer refunds or returns on any items. As a small business, it is unsustainable to offer the same unquestioned refund policies as the Amazons of the world. Your purchase has not lined the pockets of shareholder, but instead, directly impacted our life and livelihood, for which we are forever grateful. Thank you for understanding the realities we face! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us prior to making a purchase: ciao@carraterra.com
However, if your original purchase arrives to you damaged, please alert us within 7 days from the date of receipt (as determined by shipment tracking details provided by 3rd party mailing companies). Include photos of the damage of the piece and any photos of the box and packaging in the state it was upon arrival. If we have additional inventory, we will replace your item promptly. If we are out of stock or you purchased a one-of-a-kind item, we will refund your order minus the cost of taxes & credit card fees already paid. Replacing items damaged during shipping without cost is only available if we receive a message from you within 1 week of the package arriving, per the tracking number delivery date.
Size Disclaimer
All pieces in our shop are handmade, by us, personally. Please remember this means there will be small variations from piece to piece. **This includes the precise liquid volume of any given vessel** Mugs may range in variance of up to 2 ounces in difference. The volume of any item is measured to the RIM of the vessel for the sake of consistency. We do our best to make every piece as consistent as possible, and only sell items within a small range of variance, but the goal of handmade is not to recreate industrial sameness. If you are looking for an exact volume size, handmade may not be the best solution for you.
Durability
Part of what makes our ceramics so enjoyable is how light they are to hold, even when full. When taking care of your handmade pieces, consider it the same way you would an item of glassware. For example, you would expect glassware to break if it gets bumped around in the sink too much. Thinking of ceramics the same way we take care of glassware is sure to provide you with a piece you get to enjoy for many years to come! For this reason, we HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO WASH ALL OF OUR ITEMS IN THE DISHWASHER. If placed securely, your piece is sure to last and avoid the accidental slippages more common when hand washing an item.
Breakages
We cannot replace broken items for free, but we know how disappointing it can be when your favorite mug has an accident. We offer a private listing to purchase a replacement at a small discount. Please send us a direct message for access to this listing.
