Customer Service

Shipping & Delivery

Each piece is handmade to order and takes up to 1-7 business days to ship. If we can’t ship your order within 7 days, you will be notified by email with an estimated delivery date. We ship all orders via United States Postal Service (USPS) Priority mail. Transit time ranges from 2-3 business days depending on the proximity from New York. Priority shipping and handling costs $7.00 per order. If you would like your shipment to be expedited, you can choose two-day air USPS Express mail, but keep in mind that it applies only to the shipping transit time. Express shipping cost $30.00. Please note that we do not ship to PO boxes—a street address is required. When your order is ready for shipment, you will receive an email with your tracking information. If your order is time sensitive, please email us at service@darleenmeier.com to make special arrangements, and we will rush your order for an additional charge.

We do ship international through USPS First Class. Transit time can take up to 2 weeks. International shipping rates are $8.00.

Jewelry Care

Darleen Meier Jewelry is handmade using 14k gold-filled and sterling silver wire, gold-fill and gold-plated and sterling silver chain and findings. 14k gold filled is made by bonding a layer of 14k gold to a supporting metal, usually sterling silver. Gold-filled jewelry wears and resembles solid gold. It will not tarnish, crack, chip or peel. And with proper care, it will last a lifetime. Sterling silver contains 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. It will tarnish naturally and requires occasional cleaning. We recommend a non-abrasive silver polish or rub with a soft cotton cloth. All of our precious and semi-precious stones are hand picked for cut and clarity. Due to the handmade nature of the beads and their designs, variations in color and bead shape may occur. When cleaning gemstones, immerse them in warm, soapy water then rinse and lay out to dry on a soft cloth.

To keep your jewelry looking its best, remember some simple rules:

  • Always put jewelry on after using cosmetics, hair spray or perfumes. The chemicals may cause damage to the stones.
  • Don't wear jewelry to bed. It prevents possible damage to you and the jewelry.
  • Avoid wearing jewelry in the shower, swimming or washing dishes. It not only dims the shine but also can shorten the life of the jewels.
  • Store all jewelry in a protective jewelry bag or zip-lock bag.

Your jewelry will last a lifetime with proper care.

If by chance your Darleen Meier Jewelry becomes damaged from normal wear or from shipping, we will be happy to repair it free of charge within 90 days of order. After 90 days, we request a fee for materials and shipping. If you have a repair, please contact us at service@darleenmeier.com.
