Product & material

How are the earrings packaged?

All earrings are packaged in a pouch with the Petit Bonbon logo. For orders over €75, you will receive a complimentary gift box. This is also the best way to store your earrings: individually packaged and away from light, air, and moisture, to prevent them from rubbing against other jewellery. Each pair includes extra earring backs.

What are the earrings made of?

Our earrings are handmade with quality materials: semi-precious stones or resin, with nickel-free posts that are gold-plated or silver-plated (a thin layer of gold or silver). For each product, the material of both the jewel and the earring post is indicated.

Semi-precious stones and pearls are natural products: small variations and imperfections are part of their nature and are not flaws, but rather a characteristic of a natural product. Resin is very light, comes in many colours, and is virtually identical per piece.

Are the earrings nickel-free or hypoallergenic?

All our jewelry is nickel-free. Each product specifies the material the stud is made of. Disinfect your jewelry before wearing it for the first time, to avoid reactions to dirt.

Are all the earrings handmade?

Yes. Each pair is handcrafted in our workshop in Dendermonde, which may result in slight variations, making every pair unique.

Will I get extra earplugs or clasps?

Yes. Every pair of earrings comes with extra ear stoppers as standard.

Are the earrings heavy?

What’s heavy for one person might not be for another, which is why we’ve indicated the weight of each product. This way, you can decide what works for you. We consciously choose lightweight materials so that even larger statement earrings remain comfortable to wear all day long.

Are the colors in the photos exactly the same?

We try to represent the colors as true to life as possible. Due to differences between monitors, colors may vary slightly. You are also always welcome by appointment at the studio to view and try on the earrings.

Do the earrings discolor?

Our earrings are made with quality materials. To keep them beautiful for as long as possible, it is best to avoid contact with water, perfume, sunscreen, and other cosmetic products. Store them dry and separately when not wearing them. Wear and tear is normal after frequent use.


Shipping & delivery

How are orders shipped?

Orders are sent well-packaged and you will receive a tracking code by email to track your parcel. Most boxes fit into a standard letterbox, except for gift-wrapped items, an order of at least 3 pairs of earrings, or a jewellery stand.

Will I receive a confirmation email?

Yes. Immediately after placing your order, you will receive a confirmation by email. Please also check your spam folder if you do not find it. As soon as your package has been shipped, you will also receive a track & trace code via email. As these are automatically generated emails, they may sometimes end up in your spam folder.

Will my package fit in a standard letterbox?

Usually, yes. Earrings come in a cardboard box with bubble wrap that fits through a standard letterbox, so your package can be delivered even if you're not home. If you opt for gift wrapping, the package will not fit through the letterbox.

What are the shipping costs?

Shipping costs are calculated during checkout. Belgium & The Netherlands: free from €100. Europe: free from €150. Worldwide: free from €275. Pick-up in Dendermonde is always free (by appointment).

What is the delivery time?

We ship twice a week via bpost. Usually, you will receive your package within 1 to 3 business days after dispatch. Sometimes a package is delayed during the courier's sorting process — unfortunately, we have no control over that. If your package has not been delivered 7 business days after the tracking code, please contact us. More about shipping.

What if my tracking isn't updated immediately?

Orders are collected here twice a week. After dispatch, it may take a few hours for tracking to become active. If you still don't see an update after 24 hours, please feel free to contact us.

Can I pick up my order in Dendermonde?

Yes. During checkout, choose to pick up in Dendermonde. You will receive an email once your order is ready, and you can make an appointment via WhatsApp or email. Pick-up is possible on weekdays. Address: Noordlaan 138, 9200 Dendermonde.

Can I still change or cancel my order?

Because orders are processed quickly, we cannot guarantee changes or cancellations. Please contact us as soon as possible; if your order has not yet been processed, we will be happy to see what is possible.

Can I still change the shipping method after ordering?

No, the shipping method cannot be changed after you have placed your order. Therefore, please double-check your choice (e.g., collection point or home delivery) before checking out.

Can I combine multiple orders for shipping?

If you contact us immediately and your order has not yet been processed, we will try to ship multiple orders together. However, we cannot guarantee this.

My parcel didn't arrive on time

If you chose shipping with tracking and your package has not been delivered after 7 business days, please email us — we will investigate it with the courier. Unfortunately, we cannot do that with standard shipping without tracking. Petit Bonbon is not responsible for loss, theft or delays caused by the courier.

Can I have my order shipped at a later date?

If you would like your order to be shipped at a later date, for example because you are going on a trip, please indicate this in the 'remarks' section of your shopping cart. We will then take into account the date on which the package can be sent.

What happens if I don't pick up my package from the pick-up point?

When a package is not collected in time and is returned to us, we will charge for both the return costs (€9.50) and a new shipment. Please ensure you collect your package promptly.

My package was returned due to an incorrect or incomplete address

If your parcel is returned because the address was incomplete or incorrect, you will be charged for the return costs (€9.50). Please check your shipping address carefully when ordering.


Returns & Exchanges

Can I return items, and what is the return period?

Yes, you have 14 days after receipt to return. Items must be unworn and in their original, properly sealed packaging. Clip-on earrings and custom-made items cannot be returned. All information on our returns page.

A restocking fee of 10% of the order amount will be charged if the return arrives at our studio between 14 and 21 days. Returns received after 21 days will be refused. Do you wish to receive this package again? Then the shipping costs will be at your expense.

How do I register my return?

Register your return via your customer account. After registration, send your package back to our studio, including your name and order number. You are responsible for arranging the return shipment yourself (preferably with track & trace).

Can I exchange it for another item?

Returned items will be refunded after inspection. Do you want a different model? Then place a new order — that way you're sure your favourite is still in stock.

How and when will I get my money back?

After receiving and checking your return, we will refund the money to the same payment method you used. Please allow a few working days. Return costs and original shipping costs will not be refunded. If you paid with a gift voucher, we will reload the amount onto your gift voucher.

A restocking fee of 10% of the order amount will be charged if the return arrives at our workshop between 14 and 21 days after delivery. Returns that arrive after 21 days will be refused. If you wish to receive this package again, the shipping costs will be at your expense.

Can I return items from the sale or outlet?

Yes. Sale and outlet items can be returned within the applicable return period, provided they are unworn and in their original packaging. For these items, we do not provide a refund, but you will receive store credit equal to the value of the returned amount. This way, you can choose another pair at a later time.

May I try on the earrings?

You may inspect the earrings as you would in a store. For hygienic reasons, worn earrings cannot be returned.


Warranty & repair

My order arrived damaged – what now?

Within 5 days of receipt, send a photo of the packaging and the jewel to mail.petit.bonbon@gmail.com. We will then, as far as possible and depending on the availability of materials, ensure that it is repaired or resolved.

How long is the warranty?

A warranty of 8 months applies to manufacturing and material defects. If a stone comes loose or a clasp breaks within this period due to no misuse, we will repair it free of charge. After that, we charge €15 (excluding shipping costs). Normal wear and tear, damage due to accidents, loss or theft are not covered by the warranty.

What is not covered by the warranty?

Normal wear and tear, discoloration due to contact with perfume or water, misuse, loss, and accidental damage are not covered by the warranty.

How do I get a piece of jewelry repaired?

Register your repair via our repair page, or email a photo of your earrings with your order number. The repair cost is €15 (excl. shipping costs). If you bring it to the studio yourself, you won't pay any shipping costs.

I lost one earring

Oh no! If the earrings are still in stock, you can buy a single earring at half the price of a pair. Please send us an email to arrange this.


Workshop & appointment

Can I view all the collections in the studio?

Yes, everything that is in stock online can be viewed in the studio (excluding pre-orders) but only by appointment during weekdays. This way we can take enough time to help you personally.

Does the studio have fixed opening hours?

No, the studio does not have fixed opening hours. You can only visit to view earrings in person by appointment via email, on weekdays between 8:30 AM and 5:00 PM.

Where is the studio located?

Noordlaan 138, 9200 Dendermonde, Belgium — to be visited by appointment.

How much does a custom jewel cost?

That depends on the materials and the design. A variation on an existing design usually costs the same; something unique is typically between €80 and €175 per pair. Make an appointment or request more info.


Payment, gifts & B2B

How can I pay?

Bancontact, Belfius, iDEAL, ING, KBC/CBC, Maestro, Mastercard, Visa, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and bank transfer.

Do you offer gift wrapping?

From €75, you'll receive a free gift box. You can also have your earrings gift-wrapped via the shopping cart. If you want your package delivered directly to the recipient, please specify a different delivery address during checkout.

No invoice or price information is ever included in the package.

Do you have gift vouchers?

Yes. A Petit Bonbon gift voucher is always a safe choice — then the lucky recipient can choose her favourite herself. You can find them in the shop and they are delivered immediately by email.

How long are gift cards valid for?

Gift vouchers are valid for 1 year.

Can I combine multiple gift vouchers?

Yes, multiple gift vouchers can be used for one order.

How do I care for my jewelry?
