Return, Refund and Cancellation Policy
Last updated: 23 October 2026
At Bastar Decor, we take pride in offering distinctive handicrafts inspired by the traditional Dokra art of Bastar, Chhattisgarh. Established in 2012, our family business celebrates the beauty of handmade craftsmanship, where every piece has its own character.
We carefully inspect and pack our products before dispatch. However, if your order arrives damaged, defective, incorrect, or does not meet the conditions outlined below, we are here to help.
Please read our Return, Refund and Cancellation Policy before placing an order.
1. Return Eligibility
Customers may request a return within 7 days of receiving their order, subject to the following conditions:
-
The product must be unused and in its original condition.
-
The product must be returned with its original packaging, accessories, and any accompanying items, wherever applicable.

The product must not have been damaged due to mishandling, improper use, or accidental damage after delivery.

Return requests submitted after the 7-day return window may not be accepted, except where required by applicable law.
2. Handmade Product Variations
Bastar Decor specializes in traditional handmade Dokra and brass handicrafts. Since our products are individually handcrafted, slight variations in shape, size, texture, colour, patterns, and finish may occur.
These natural variations are part of the handmade process and contribute to the uniqueness of each piece. Minor variations that are consistent with the product description and photographs are not considered defects and may not qualify for a return.
We encourage customers to review the product description, dimensions, materials, and photographs carefully before placing an order.

Clear photographs of the product and the damage or defect.
-
Photographs of the outer packaging and shipping label, where applicable.
-

Please retain the product and its packaging until your request has been reviewed.
After verification, Bastar Decor may offer an appropriate resolution, such as a replacement, return, refund, or another remedy, depending on the circumstances and applicable law.
For verified cases involving damage during shipping, manufacturing defects, or an incorrect product supplied by us, Bastar Decor will arrange or cover the reasonable return shipping costs, as applicable.
