The story of Alchemy began with two Manchester lads, Geoff Kayson and Trevor Phillipson, self taught, amateur artists and model makers. Broke, jobless and into rock and punk music in Leicester in 1977, GK started making punk anti-jewellery and selling it to local shops, at gigs and by mail order. Demand grew, the two teamed-up and soon, they were making pewter skull jewellery and being asked to make tour merchandise for bands.
Alchemy’s rock and goth jewellery, their Poker rock merchandise and their reputation for design, all took off and Alchemy quickly grew into a small company of young, creative wastrels specialising in the alternative lifestyle. 42 years later and still under their original ownership, the English based art, design, manufacturing and distribution company has grown to become an international brand.

We want you to be satisfied with the products you have ordered, so we give our products a 30-day right of exchange and return.

After that, we charge € 4.90 per shipment.
If the customer returns the entire order, the refund only applies to the amount of the products, delivery costs will not be refunded. All campaign discounts will also be canceled if the campaign condition is not met after the returned products (e.g. free shipping costs). The original delivery costs of 4.90 euros always remain to be paid for the order.
We recommend that you notify Klarna of the exchange/return if you have chosen an invoice as the payment method, in which case the invoice will go on hold and it will not hurt to exceed the due date.
