ReturnS Terms & Conditions

VARIATIONS

What makes Frankitas special is that each handbag is completely unique.

From the handwoven textiles to the handcrafted construction, minor variations in weave patterns, stitching, fabric texture, or hardware placement give your bag its own distinctive character. These individual touches may mean your handbag varies slightly from displayed items, and what might initially appear as imperfections are actually signs of authentic craftsmanship - and that's exactly what makes it yours.

These variations are part of the artisanal process, not defects.

ITEM CONDITION

Handbags should be returned unworn and unused. Returning in the original packaging (dust bag and box) is recommended but not mandatory. If the item shows signs of use beyond what's necessary to check its nature, characteristics, or functionality (i.e. more than a normal "store-like" inspection) we may apply a small, fair deduction proportional to the diminished value.

EXCEPTIONS

Our 14-day return policy applies to most items, except for gift cards, store credit, or custom-made or personalized handbags (including monogrammed items).

YOUR PROTECTIONS

This policy does not affect your statutory rights under consumer protection laws, including implied warranties for defective products. EU customers also benefit from our 2-year legal guarantee for product conformity under EU law. US customers receive protection in all 50 states, with state-specific laws applying where more generous.
