Returns

If for some reason you're unhappy with your purchase, we can offer you store credit to spend on something else from Amara. We are only able to accept returns to a US or Guatemalan address at this time, so unfortunately UK and Canadian sales are non-returnable.

All of our items are made by hand and the majority are also made to order especially for you. We therefore cannot accept order cancellations.

We offer store credit for all full-price, non-personalized items within 14 days of delivery in the US and Guatemala only.

We are currently unable to accept returns in Canada or Europe.

All merchandise must be returned in the exact condition in which it was shipped in order to qualify.

Shipping and handling charges are non refundable and the customer is responsible for the return shipping costs.

If you'd like to return an item for store credit please contact hello@amara-collective.com within 14 days of receiving your item. We will send you to our returns portal where you can generate a shipping label and organize your return quickly and easily.

UPON RECEIPT OF RETURNED GOODS, AMARA COLLECTIVE RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DENY THE RETURN IF IT DOES NOT MEET THE COMPANY RETURN POLICY REQUIREMENTS.

Items that have been personalized through our monogramming service or customized especially for you (incuding custom sizing, colors and materials) can not be returned. By personalizing a product you are choosing to have something made especially and uniquely for you and such sales are final and non-refundable.

All sale items are final sale. No returns are accepted on discounted items.
