What are your holiday shipping cutoff dates?

For in stock items, place your order by the following dates to arrive by 12/24:

Standard Shipping (Domestic): December 9th

Expedited Shipping (Domestic): December 16th

Due to extremely high order volume during promotional periods, order processing for in-stock styles is 5-7 business days. Carriers may experience holiday delays. Tracking updates can sometimes take 48 hours to appear during peak season. We recommend ordering early to ensure timely delivery.

Can I modify my shipping address or order after placing it?

We cannot guarantee changes to order items once an order is placed due to fast holiday processing. If you need assistance, contact us immediately at info@aweinspired.com.

What happens if an item sells out?

Popular items may sell out quickly. Some bestsellers may restock throughout the season, while others are available in limited quantities. We recommend signing up for restock alerts on each product page. If an item from your order is out of stock, you may be offered a refund or store credit.

Do you offer price adjustments?

During high-traffic promotional periods, prices may fluctuate based on limited-time offers, real-time demand, and inventory availability. All promotions apply only at the time of purchase, so we’re unable to retroactively apply new sale prices or adjust the cost of orders placed prior to a promotion, including those that have not yet shipped.

Have questions about an order?

Contact info@aweinspired.com to check the status of your order or for any outstanding questions. Please include your order number so that we may better assist you.

When will my order ship?

All Awe Inspired orders are processed with care by our small but mighty team. Most orders ship within 3–5 business days (Monday–Friday, excluding holidays). Please note that due to a higher volume of sales during promotional periods, our order processing time may be delayed by an additional 2-3 business days.

What payment methods can I use?

Awe accepts all major credit cards, as well as the following: Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna, JBC, PayPal Express and Shopify Pay. 

What is your price adjustment policy?

Please note that product prices are subject to change at any time. Since prices reflect current promotions, costs, and availability, we’re unable to offer price adjustments for past orders.

How do I redeem a gift card or promotion code?

You will be prompted to enter any gift card or promotion codes during checkout, which will be applied immediately to your order.

What shipping options are available?

Awe is pleased to offer free shipping on all U.S. orders of $150+ and free return coverage available for purchase on all U.S. orders. Domestic orders should arrive within 3 to 5 business days from the day they are shipped. Two-day and overnight shipping are also available within the U.S. and are available at checkout. 

Paying for Two-day or overnight shipping shortens the time your item will spend in transit— it does not guarantee that your order will arrive in two days. The time it takes to receive your order depends on the stock status, the processing time and the shipping time. The stock status and lead time for out of stock items are listed on our product pages.

Please see the item's individual page for availability or contact us and ask if it is in stock. If you need something by a certain date, please contact us at  info@aweinspired.com  after placing your order and we will do our absolute best to accommodate your request.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. To ship internationally, we partner with Global-e. Global-e is a trusted global ecommerce vendor whose solution allows Awe Inspired to provide the best possible user experience to our international customers. 

Please select the destination in the country switcher dropdown to see which countries we ship to and select accordingly. Once you are in checkout, you will see local payment methods and calculations for any appropriate shipping, duties, taxes and other customs fees. 

Are duties and taxes included at checkout?

Duties and taxes are calculated based on the items ordered, shipment destination, and the value of the purchase. If duties and taxes are charged at checkout, they will appear as a separate line item if they are not already included in the product price. ​Some countries require duties and taxes to be paid upon delivery and they will be the customer’s responsibility. ​It will be noted at checkout for full transparency before you order.


How can I follow the status of my order?

You can track your order through our portal HERE. Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email with a USPS, DHL or UPS tracking number.

Do I need to sign for my 14k solid gold order?

Yes. To ensure your order arrives safely, all solid gold pieces are shipped with full-value insurance and require a signature upon delivery.


Missing/Lost/Stolen Package

Please wait 1-2 business days after your order is marked delivered, as packages do sometimes arrive within this window. If you purchased package protection at the time of checkout and your order is missing please file a claim through our claim portal here. Claims for stolen packages must be submitted within 30 days of delivery.

If you did not purchase package protection, Awe Inspired is not responsible for packages lost in transit or stolen from doorsteps/mailboxes/delivery addresses. Please ensure you are providing a reliable and accurate delivery address at checkout.

How do I care for my Awe jewelry?

To protect your jewelry, avoid contact with perfume, lotion, and water whenever possible, exactly like you would with solid gold pieces. Gently polish with the cleaning cloth included free in your order, and store in a dry, cool place. With the right care, your pieces will last for many years.

Can I wear it every day?

Yes. Our jewelry is designed for everyday wear. 14k gold vermeil and sterling silver are durable, but like all fine jewelry, they do best with a little care and attention.

What is gold vermeil, and how is it different from gold-plated jewelry?

Gold vermeil is a thick layer of 14k gold bonded to a base of solid sterling silver. Unlike gold-plated jewelry, which uses a thin layer of gold over brass or steel, vermeil has the weight, richness, and durability of fine jewelry. It looks and feels like solid gold and holds up beautifully over time with proper care.


Will Awe Inspired jewelry tarnish or turn my skin green?

No. Our jewelry is made only with precious metals like sterling silver and 14k gold vermeil. We never use cheap base metals that can flake, tarnish, or discolor your skin. Our pieces are hypoallergenic and made to last.


Why is Awe jewelry more expensive than other brands I see online?

We use higher quality materials and traditional craftsmanship to create jewelry that holds lasting value. That includes solid sterling silver, thick 14k gold vermeil, and natural gemstones. Each piece is designed in-house and carefully made by skilled artisans. You are not just paying for the look, you are investing in real craftsmanship and ethically sourced materials.


Where is your jewelry made?

Our designs begin in Los Angeles and are brought to life by expert jewelers in Thailand, Italy, and the United States. These partners are long-time collaborators who specialize in fine jewelry and share our commitment to quality and responsible production.


What makes your materials “ethical”?

We only work with partners who meet high standards for labor practices and environmental care. Our gemstones are sourced through trusted suppliers who prioritize transparency and sustainability. Our founder, Jill Johnson, has spent decades building these relationships to ensure integrity at every step.


Are your gemstones real?

Yes. We use only genuine natural gemstones. You will never find glass, resin, or synthetic stones in our pieces. Each stone is chosen for its natural beauty and symbolic significance.

We offer a Membership program, The Goddess Circle. To join the Goddess Circle, just sign up when prompted at checkout. You'll be able to pause, skip, or cancel at any time.

After you join the Goddess Circle with your purchase, you'll receive a free 30 day trial. You'll then be charged $40 each month and receive $40 in store credit each month unless you CANCEL or PAUSE your membership.

The Goddess Circle Membership is only available to US customers, unfortunately it is unavailable for international customers at this time.

After confirming that the transaction was truly unauthorized, we recommend that you contact your credit card company/payment account and inform them that your card has been compromised. Review the latest transactions on your account to ensure there is no other fraudulent activity to report. Your financial institution will likely put a hold on all future purchases from the compromised card/account and issue a new one for future use.
