Pre-Order:

This season we have invested in much more inventory and will not be facilitating a pre-order program.

Made to Order:

If an item is labeled “Made to order” it means, we make the item, especially for you. While we may have
certain styles in stock, most of our jewelry online is made after you order it. If you wish to purchase an item that has the “Made to Order” notification, please note these orders can take up to 10-12 weeks (about 2 months). Should a made-to-order item come into stock we will fill all existing orders first. If you are not happy with your purchase of a made-to-order item, please note they are returnable.

Special Orders:

If you cannot find your size online, you can reach out to a customer service representative at customerservice@judefrances.com to place an order for special sizing or custom lengths. These special orders take 10-12 weeks (about 2 months) and are final sales and nonreturnable.

Domestic Shipping:

We ship with FedEx.  Currently, the FedEx money-back guarantee is available for the 2024 holiday season on all non-ground orders.

Want Additional Shipping Insurance? Select Route :

Let Route cover your lost or stolen purchase. Protect what matters and opt for additional package protection on the checkout page before placing your order. Adding Route to your purchase is not a requirement, just an additional option that many JudeFrances customers prefer.

PO Box:

For security purposes, FedEx will not ship to PO Box Addresses. 

Hold For Pickup:

Whether you need to sign for your package or just want a little extra security, it’s easy to have your order sent to a FedEx hold location. Please note, that JudeFrances will not re-route your package once it has shipped. Before you place your order please select the hold location in advance and use that shipping address for your online order. JudeFrances will not alter a shipping address after a package has been shipped. This link will help you identify participating hold locations near you.

Shipping Insurance & Signature Confirmation: 

All shipments are fully insured and require an adult signature confirmation upon delivery.

Signature Waiver:

If you decide to waive the requirement of a signature upon delivery, please make a note during your check out process and email customerservice@judefrances.com (Include your full name and order number in the requested email) to confirm your decision.  In doing so, the buyer will relieve JudeFrances of all responsibility for the order once it leaves our facility and the buyer assumes full responsibility for the package. 

International Orders:

Please email customer service about these inquiries. We are working to grow our business to be able to support shipments to more countries. All international orders do not include shipping, duties, or taxes. Shipping costs and any applicable duties and taxes will be calculated and added to the order. Orders are calculated in USD and do not reflect the exchange rates. Your credit card company or other forms of payment may charge you an exchange fee. Promotional codes only apply to orders shipped within the United States.

Shipment Confirmation & Tracking:

Once your order has been shipped, a confirmation email with a FedEx tracking number will be sent. 

Redirect to Hold:  

Do you live in a rural area? Not going to be home? Unexpected Travel plans? No problem. Select the nearest FedEx location for your package to be held for pick up.

Before placing your order, please research the location of a FedEx facility near you by visiting secure FedEx location to choose the location where you want your package to be sent. Be sure to include this FedEx address in the ship-to portion of your order. Then you can pick it up at your convenience as your package is to be held at the nearest FedEx or hundreds of convenient FedEx-partnered locations.  Stop by the retail location you selected for pickup within 5 business days.  Remember to bring your ID and tracking number. 

To maintain the highest level of security, once your package has shipped, changes to the delivery location cannot be made. Please double check that the shipping address is accurate to avoid any additional delivery issues. JudeFrances will not be responsible for the redirection of packages.

Return Shipping: 

Return shipping fees and insurance is the responsibility of the customer.  The customer is responsible for all shipping charges on any bounced or undeliverable packages

Lost or Stolen Packages:

We do our due diligence to get your package delivered to you safely.  But in the case of a package is lost or stolen, please reach out to FedEx and file a claim. Please ensure you are providing correct and accurate address information to prevent purchases being delivered to the wrong location. Contact customer service if your package is stolen. Due to the liability of the courier, no refund or merchandise credit will be issued until the investigation is complete. Please note that while lost orders are our top priorities, package claims are a long and extensive process that often takes several weeks to complete.   

Returns:

We want you to be completely happy with your purchase.  If for any reason you are not satisfied, we will gladly accept items purchased from judefrances.com for a refund or merchandise credit.  Please visit the support page to initiate a return.

  • Returns made within 14 days from the day the order arrives are eligible for a full refund in the form of the original payment.  Returns made after 14 days from the day the order arrives are eligible for merchandise credit.  Merchandise credit will be issued in the form of a code (emailed to you).  The code can be used at judefrances.com with no expiration date.  Returned merchandise should include the vendor packaging.   

All returns must be unaltered, unworn, in saleable condition and must be accompanied by an original sales receipt.  Once your return is received and inspected, please allow 7-10 business days to process your refund or issue of merchandise credit.  If your return is deemed damaged due to negligence, exhibits standard wear and tear by the customer, or is not in a resalable condition we will reject the refund.  Please note that shipping costs will not be refunded. 

Repairs:

Here at JudeFrances, we stand by our product.   If your fine jewelry is damaged, you can send it in for repair.  Repairs will be assessed on an individual basis.  We will either send it locally for repair or if the damage is excessive, we will need to send it back to the manufacturer for repair.  Repairs deemed to be caused by the customer’s misuse or wear and tear and not a manufacturer’s defect will incur a repair charge at the customer’s expense.  Please visit the support page to initiate a repair.

Currently, we are only able to replace jewelry from the 2018 collection season to the current collection season
