This retired Swarovski crystal south sea shell belonged to the “South Seas” collection and is made from clear crystal. It is a gorgeous, true to life, glass copy of a real conch shell. Such a lovely ornament that will bring back any memories you may have of any South Pacific holidays in the past! It is large for this type of piece from Swarovski and, additionally, the use of smooth glass with the spikes of the conch attached made the design very ahead of its time. At that time Swarovski was concentrating on its silver crystal range, of which this is one, but most of the others did not use smooth glass, but rather a textured glass. The use of the smooth glass makes this shell a truly contemporary piece. It is extremely rare, so our suggestion is not to wait around. We looked high and low for this item, originally to create a trio of shells. In the end, we decided to sell each shell separately as they were all rare pieces. This is the only one we have left and won't stay in our warehouse for long!
SHIPPING
Your item will be shipped express, insured with track and trace and
signature on delivery. Shipping is calculated
based on the item selling at full price. We will recalculate the shipping
charges if the selling price is altered. We only charge you the amount we are
charged by the shipping company and it is really the insurance that is so
expensive. International shipping will be higher. We previously absorbed
the cost of shipping, but the insurance, along with the other fees that we pay,
just got too high. At least this way, we can keep the actual price of the
item as low as possible.
We always use Australia Post Express Post or a courier service.
This is so that we can be absolutely sure your item will arrive quickly.
Also, in case there is a problem, Australia Post will open an investigation
quickly and can usually find your item. Standard Post clients have to
wait 30 days to open an investigation and this, in our opinion, is too long for
the client to wait.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS/CUSTOMS
Please note, that for international buyers there may be customs duties
or taxes that may be due and which the buyer must pay. If you are unsure whether your item will attract customs fees, we
suggest that you call your local Customs Department to enquire. Sometimes, we may be able to assist you with information
30 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE
We are happy to accept returns for almost any reason, as long as the item is in the same condition as when it left here.
Of course if an item can be proven to have been damaged in transit, you
can rest assured that it has been insured. There are steps for you to
follow so we can claim the insurance to reimburse you, so please let us know the
minute you open the parcel. We pack our parcels very carefully and have
had no damage to date.
There are only four reasons why you would not be eligible for a refund:
1. If the item has been altered from the original item sent
to you
2. If the item is damaged after it has been delivered to you
3. If the item has been damaged in transit and the buyer is
not co-operative in supplying photos and a description of how the goods arrived
to you. We can only reimburse you when the carrier has accepted
responsibility for any damage, which means we will need many photos and a
description to supply to them. If the carrier does not accept
responsibility for the damage, no refund will be forthcoming
4. If your item attracts customs duties or fees and you refuse to
pay them. The goods will not be released to you until that happens and we
will not reimburse you for not paying the customs fees
We are more than happy to help you in any way that we can and are here
to solve any problems for you. Please contact us by eBay messaging or our
phone number is also in the contact details and we will always put you
first!
FEEDBACK
We also do very much appreciate you taking the time to leave us positive
feedback if we have met or exceeded your expectations, which is our aim.

the chance to solve any problem you may have.
