The cost of the shipping in Europe goes from 10€ to 30€ depending on duties and taxes, for the rest of the countries the cost is 25USD. All the deliveries are made during business hours from Monday to Friday, bank holidays excluded.
If you live in Milan and you place an order within 11.00am in a working day, your Aliita jewel will be carried by a total green bike courier. In Milan your Aliita Jewel will arrive the same day.

PRODUCT CARE
Aliita’s jewels are totally made in Italy and their composition is 100% gold (yellow or white) 9kt or 18kt. Aliita’s production is made in the most historical and famous jewellery district in Italy (Milan, Valenza,
Vicenza and Arezzo) where the jewellery experts and major know-how comes from. Regarding our stones, Aliita uses only natural precious stones which almost all are cut in Italy except for a small part that is cut in India.
Since Aliita’s jewels are handmade, it’s very difficult to find two of them completely equal and this is the reason why even small imperfections are not considered defective but expressions of the extremely high craftsmanship of our goldsmith and the naturalness of our stones. If you want to have a close vision of how an Aliita jewel is made you can check our Responsibility page and enjoy the creation of one of our product.
Aliita’s jewels, even if they are worn daily, don’t need a particular attention than what normally gold jewellery. In any case, you have to consider that normal everyday use and external agents such as those
present in the atmosphere, cosmetics, humidity and perspiration, may reduce the surface sheen of gold as well as the sparkle of precious stones and diamonds when they come into contact with jewellery.
After each use, it would be a good habit to keep jewellery in a dry place, separately stored in the pouches we gave you, away from heat sources and, more in general, protected from harmful agents.
Our cords are 100% natural cotton, therefore it is advisable to avoid any contact with external agents such as water (especially sea salt water), soap, cosmetics, perfume, detergents, chlorine and any other substances that may cause the colour to fade or the cord to ruin. Please notice since cotton is a natural fiber, they will naturally deteriorate with the normal use.
In case your cotton cord will break or gets ruined don’t worry, you can buy a new one of the colour you prefer for 10€ (shipping excluded)
