RETURN & EXCHANGE POLICY

For customised artworks:
-
All requirements and references have to be clearly indicated in the request form. Any elements of the artwork not defined by the customer will be subjected to the artist's creative freedom.
-
Up to 3 revisions are allowed for the sketch. The artwork is deemed confirmed once the sketch is approved or by the 3rd revision / 4th draft.

A replacement is allowed only if you have received an incorrect or defective item. For frame damages, a replacement will only be made for the frame. Please take a photo of the product with the defect clearly shown, and email the photo to heartstringsincolours@gmail.com within 2 working days upon receipt, or 4 working days from courier service pick-up or normal mail postage, whichever is earlier. Please note that we will not entertain any requests beyond that deadline. Kindly allow us 3-5 working days to review the issue.
