We shall do our best to ensure that no products shall be listed available for purchase unless it is within our ability to ensure the customer receives it, but in the event of miscalculation of resources through which a purchase could possibly be made that a product cannot be delivered for, a prompt notification to the customer and refund would be sent.
In photographing our products we have made every effort to represent them as accurately as possible, but as is the nature of the handmade materials used on parts of them, not all pieces we produce will be identical. There will be small differences in every item we produce, even in the same style, size, and colorway.
This is a result of the authentic handcraft processes used by our collaborators who produce the artisan materials we use. Differences are unavoidable, but not detrimental. Rather, each garment that we sell is a unique piece because of this and we value that quality of handmaking traditions.
When purchasing products from us that use handmade materials, it is assumed that you understand this and thereby revoke any right to request a return or exchange because of perceived discrepancies between the received product and images on the product page.
If a product has been purchased as a preorder or made-to-order, and it makes significant use of handmade materials, it may not be elligible for a return or exchange.
We ship our products through domestic and international services offer by USPS. We will make our best effort to ship to your location, however please understand that sometimes shipping limitations and availability may be outside of our control. In which case, we reserve the right to cancel and refund your order as necessary.

In the event of such delays, we will notify any purchasers of these products with an updated ship-by date as soon as possible. Changes to the expected ship-by date will be avoided as much as possible, but if they do occur they shall not be considered as reasonable grounds for order cancellation, refunds, or exchanges.

graciela & grace hopes to satisfy all of our valued clients and customers. If an order is placed by mistake, or placed with the wrong style options, that order may be cancelled so long as it is within the timeframes described in this section.
Many of our products are offered via pre-order and made to customer style/size requests. Purchases made during a pre-order period remain freely cancellable at any point until the period ends. Pre-ordered items can no longer be cancelled once orders have been finalized and manufacturing has begun.
For any of the items we sell from stock, purchases may be cancelled so long as it is before the item has shipped. Once the product has left our hands and is on its way to you, cancelling is no longer possible.
We understand that sometimes an item arrives and it’s not what you expected, or is in the wrong size, or possibly arrives damaged. In the case of any of these events, we are happy to discuss with you how to best remedy the situation.
