Return & Exchanges
All our products are handcrafted by traditional craft persons in rural India, resulting in each product being unique and slightly different from each other.
An irregular weave or print or a stitch should not be taken as a defect as handcrafted products will not show consistent uniformity like a machine-made product. Handloom, by definition, means a glorious uncertainty when it comes to uniformity.
Despite these variables, at Global Riva, we stand behind the quality of our products and we allow exchange/ return/ refund (for eligible product categories) if you are not satisfied with your purchase for any reason.
The exchange, return & refund policies mentioned below are applicable only on Domestic Orders placed online through our official website (www.globalriva.com) and not applicable for products bought at offline stores or on any third-party platforms.
