Shipping & Returns

We want receiving (and returning) your 1/9 Studio piece to feel effortless. Below is everything you need to know about shipping, tracking, cancellations, returns and refunds. If anything here is unclear, email us at hello@oneninthstudio.com and weโ€™ll help.

When will my order ship?

We ship from our fulfillment center in California.

  • Standard processing: Most orders are fulfilled within 1โ€“3 business days (Monโ€“Fri), excluding holidays.

  • Pre-orders & backorders: These may take longer โ€” check the product page for estimated ship dates.

  • Personalized / made-to-order items: Items custom-made in Los Angeles (engraving, bespoke wedding pieces, etc.) typically take 1โ€“2 months to arrive. When your order ships, weโ€™ll email you a tracking number โ€” once the package reaches your country the carrier tracking will update with movements.

Shipping options & thresholds

  • Free standard shipping (USA): on orders $130+.

  • Free international shipping: on orders $340+.

  • International delivery: we ship to 100+ countries. For country-specific rates and delivery windows, see the shipping section on our website or email us.

Canโ€™t find your package?

Carriers sometimes leave parcels in a โ€œsafe placeโ€ (porch, garage, neighbor, mailroom). Please check all nearby locations first. If a package is marked delivered but you canโ€™t find it, allow 2โ€“3 days for the carrier to update โ€” then contact the carrier. If the carrier canโ€™t locate it, contact us at hello@oneninthstudio.com and weโ€™ll assist.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes! We currently ship to 100+ countries. International duties, taxes and customs fees may apply depending on the destination โ€” these are the recipientโ€™s responsibility unless otherwise stated.

Returns & exchanges โ€” whatโ€™s allowed?

We want you to love your piece. If you donโ€™t, hereโ€™s how returns and exchanges work:

  • Return window: You may return or exchange any item that is unworn, in original packaging, and in original condition within 3 days of receipt.

  • How to start a return/exchange: Visit our Returns page or email hello@oneninthstudio.com to begin.

  • Exchanges: We can only exchange for the same item. Exchanges are available within the USA only.

  • International returns: Returns are accepted worldwide (subject to the condition above).

  • Final sale / non-returnable items: Sale items, special orders, custom/personalized items (including Precious capsule and made-to-order jewelry), final-sale merchandise, pop-up purchases, and items from third-party vendors are not eligible for return.

Customized jewelry

All custom-made pieces โ€” including bespoke commissions, engraved items and Precious capsule pieces โ€” are final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged. Please confirm all details before placing a custom order.

Order cancellations

You can cancel an order within 3 hours of placement. If cancelled, transaction fees charged by Square (or the payment processor) will apply and may be deducted from your refund.

Refund timing

Due to carrier and returns-center volume, processing returns may take 2โ€“4 weeks. Once we receive and process your return, we will issue a refund and email confirmation. It usually takes 5โ€“7 business days for the refund to appear in your original form of payment after we issue it. If you have questions about a refund status, email hello@oneninthstudio.com.

Signature for delivery

For higher-value orders (generally over $150), carriers such as USPS may require a signature at delivery. If you expect to be unavailable, leave delivery instructions with your carrier (or choose a secure delivery location).

What does โ€œPre-Orderโ€ mean?

Pre-order items are reserved for you and shipped as soon as they are available. The estimated ship date is listed on the product page. Weโ€™ll notify you by email with tracking when your pre-order ships. 

What does โ€œJoin Waitlistโ€ mean?

A waitlist is not loss โ€” itโ€™s a private reservation with a promise. When a piece is sold out but still available to reserve, joining our waitlist holds your place in line. Typical production/restock time is about 1โ€“2 months. Waitlist members are notified first: weโ€™ll confirm timing, payment details, and ship date, then email tracking when the piece ships. To join, click โ€œJoin Waitlistโ€ on the product page.

Still have questions?

Weโ€™re here to help โ€” contact us anytime at hello@oneninthstudio.com. If youโ€™d like, we can prepare a printable care & returns card to include in your packaging or provide order-specific guidance for gifts, international delivery, and custom work.
