Return Policy
​
Ella Gutman is committed to creating the finest level of handmade crafts and utensils, which meet the highest professional international standards. Each piece is made in a creative process that includes planning, design, throwing and painting stages, several fires in designated kilns and strict quality control and refinement methods. Thus, each item in the website's shop is bound to the highest workmanship and production process.
Ella undertakes that all item images which appear in the shop have been arranged to present the nature of the object for sale as accurately as possible and in order to emphasize the uniqueness of handmade artworks.
When purchasing an item, the customer expresses agreement that the item ordered is not the specific item photographed but an identical item in all main features, and that there may be slight changes as a result of the item
being specially prepared and handmade.
(This does not apply to "Single Piece" items, which are one of a kind and cannot be replicated or reproduced).
The customer acknowledges that except where explicitly stated, all prices on the site are for a single unit, regardless of the image displayed on the site, and that a demand to receive a product in quantity, shade, tone or light in the exact measurements shown in the image, does not provide a reason to replace a product and will not be answered.

Unlike industrial items, which are manufactured in a factory line according to a pattern, each handmade item
has a uniqueness reserved only for it. Like identical twins, even those pieces of craft that carry the same name
have small differences that distinguish each individual object.
