Refund policy

Every Otilia candle is made by hand in a small batch — poured with care, cast in real concrete. Once it leaves us, it's yours. We can't accept returns on undamaged products.

But if your candle arrived broken — the courier did a thing — here's what to do:

1. Don't throw anything away (box, packaging, broken pieces).
2. Take a video the moment you open it. Unboxing but sadder.
3. Send the video + your order number to otiliacandle@gmail.com within 48 hours of delivery.
4. We'll sort it out and make sure you end up with a candle that wasn't in a fight.

No video within 48 hours = we genuinely can't help. We use that video to fight the courier on your behalf too — it protects both of us.

No refunds. Only exchange on undamaged products. Broken on arrival? Video in 48 hours. We'll exchange it. That's the whole policy.
