  • Screen settings;
  • Lighting conditions;
  • Photography;
  • Device type;

Product photographs may be enlarged to show detail. Customers should review the measurements and specifications provided on each product page before ordering.

Product availability is not guaranteed. We may modify, discontinue, or limit the availability of a product at any time.

6. Naturally Unique Pearls

Many LumiSerene products contain natural or cultured pearls.

Subtle variations in pearl shape, size, surface texture, luster, color, and tone are part of their natural character. These variations make each piece unique and are not considered defects solely because they differ slightly from product photographs or from one another.

This provision does not exclude products that are materially damaged, incorrectly made, defective, or different from the product ordered.

7. Prices, Taxes and Currency

Unless otherwise stated, all prices displayed on our website are in U.S. dollars.

Product prices do not include shipping fees, taxes, customs duties, import charges, or other government-imposed fees unless expressly stated.

Applicable shipping fees and taxes will be displayed during checkout whenever required and available.

We may:

  • Update product prices;
  • Correct typographical or pricing errors;
  • End promotional pricing;
  • Limit the quantity of products purchased;
  • Cancel an order affected by an obvious pricing or technical error.

If we cancel a paid order because of a pricing or technical error, we will issue a full refund to the original payment method.

Price changes do not affect orders that have already been accepted and shipped.

By submitting a payment, you represent that:

  • You are authorized to use the selected payment method;
  • The billing information provided is accurate;
  • The payment does not violate any applicable law.

An order may be delayed or canceled if payment cannot be verified, is declined, is reversed, or appears unauthorized.

9. Orders and Order Acceptance

After placing an order, you may receive an automated confirmation email. This email confirms that we received your order but does not necessarily mean the order has been accepted or shipped.

An order is accepted when we send a shipping confirmation or otherwise confirm that the order has entered fulfillment.

We may refuse, limit, or cancel an order for legitimate reasons, including:

  • Product unavailability;
  • Incorrect pricing or product information;
  • Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment;
  • Shipping restrictions;
  • Violation of purchase limits;
  • Violation of these Terms.

If we cancel an order after payment has been received and before the order has been fulfilled, we will issue a full refund to the original payment method.

Most in-stock orders are processed within 1–3 business days after payment confirmation. During holidays, promotional events, or other high-volume periods, processing may take approximately 3–7 business days.

Standard U.S. delivery is estimated to take 7–12 business days after the order has been processed and shipped.

Every U.S. order includes online tracking from dispatch to delivery.

If we are unable to ship an order within the stated processing period, we will notify the customer and provide the option to accept the revised shipping date or cancel the unshipped order for a full refund.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate and complete shipping information. Additional costs caused by an incorrect or incomplete address may be charged to the customer when permitted by law.

Risk of loss and ownership of the products pass to the customer upon confirmed delivery by the shipping carrier.

Complete shipping terms are provided in our Shipping Policy.
