Refund policy
At ZHAROKHA, every piece is thoughtfully designed and crafted with care. Many of our products are handmade using natural materials and traditional techniques, which means slight variations in colour, texture, grain, embroidery, finish or form may occur. These variations are part of the character of handcrafted products and are not considered defects.
We want you to be happy with your purchase. Please review our return and refund guidelines below.
Returns
You may request a return within 7 days of receiving your order.
To be eligible for a return, the product must:
- Be unused, unworn and in its original condition
- Have all original tags, labels and accessories intact
- Be returned in its original packaging
- Include the original invoice or proof of purchase
Products returned without their original packaging, showing signs of use, damage or alteration may not be accepted.
To initiate a return, please contact us at [customer care email] with your order number and reason for return.
Please do not send any product back without receiving return confirmation from our team.

Handmade & Natural Material Variations
ZHAROKHA works with natural materials and handcrafted processes.
Variations in:
- Stone veining
- Wood grain
- Natural colour
- Texture
- Embroidery
- Hand-finishing
- Surface markings
- Shape or dimensions within reasonable limits
are inherent characteristics of handcrafted products and make each piece unique.
Such natural variations are not considered manufacturing defects and will not qualify for return or replacement on that basis alone.

We carefully inspect and pack every order before dispatch.
