CANADA
Canadian orders ship via Canada Post Expedited Shipping or Regular Parcel Mail. Packages usually arrive within 4-10 business days.

USA
US orders ship either via Canada Post Light Packet & Small Packet Service or USPS First Class or Priority Mail Service. Packages typically arrive within 4-10 business days. If you have purchased a larger item, your item may arrive via ground shipping – in order to keep costs down. Tracking usually costs $10 more per parcel, which is why we do not provide tracking unless requested, at which point the buyer pays for the additional costs.

In order to keep costs down for our customers, for orders to everywhere else we ship via Canada Post Small Packet Air Service. Delivery time varies and can take from 2 weeks to up to 2 months. If you would like to upgrade or would like insurance and tracking for your package please contact us.

Shipments outside North America, may be subject to Customs Duty and/or other Local Taxes. International customs charges/ local taxes/ fees/ VAT are responsibility of the buyer.

We will be happy to mail you a replacement, upon return of the defective unit.

Sometimes, we are back ordered on materials for certain items but they will still be listed on the website. We always note that the materials are back ordered. If you would like to purchase the item, please be advised that it could take anywhere from 2-3 weeks to make and have delivered.

We’re sorry, there are no refunds accepted on custom orders.

When cared for properly, a leather bag can last a lifetime. Use frequently, and your bag will develop a beautiful patina.

Use products for conditioning leather to clean, or take to a professional leather cleaning

All of our items are handmade and pieces may vary slightly from the photos in the listing. Particularly with leather bags, each piece of leather has its own unique grain and texture, patina and idiosyncrasies, so will be unique and one-of-a-kind. Be aware that we intentionally embrace and preserve the perfect imperfections found in leather. The brand marks, scars, textures and idiosyncrasies of the material emphasize how unique each and every piece is: no two are ever the same. Over time, your leather will develop a beautiful patina reflective of the life it has had with you and the adventures you have shared.
If you specifically don’t want any brand marks, scars or blemishes on your piece, please contact us before placing an order to ensure we can accommodate your request. The very nature of our ethos of choosing leather that large fashion houses would normally overlook due to their markings may make it difficult for us to accommodate you, but we’ll do our best.

Antique and vintage hardware has lived its life as something exposed to elements before it came to be a part of our work- this means it will have the same wear and patina expected of an antique or vintage item. We try and represent this as much as possible in the images.

Please keep in mind that we usually make more than one of the same item, so please allow slight differences to the piece that you receive. If this is a problem, please feel free to contact us before purchase so that we can let you know if we will actually be able to send you the one in the picture.

Wholesale orders are welcome. Wholesale pricing offers discounts of 30%, 40% and 50% the website price, depending on the volume ordered of a particular piece. Please visit our wholesale inquiry page to learn more.

If you are familiar with our etsy page (www.etsy.com/shop/divinadesigns), you will note that there is a slight difference in pricing. This is due to a number of factors, including but not limited to, the extra costs associated with listing on etsy, the percentage etsy takes after closing a sale, and the time it takes to post on an additional site are factored, resulting in a slight increase in pricing.
