Refund and returns policy
Last updated November 2026
Return window
You can return a stock item within 14 days of the day it is delivered, for a refund of the item price.
What can be returned
The piece must be unused, in the condition it arrived in, and in its original packaging. Every piece is handmade, so natural variation in colour, grain, glaze or size within the range shown in the listing is not a fault — but it can still be returned for a change of mind within the 14 days.
How you are refunded
Ceylona issues every refund, to the payment method you used. Card and wallet payments go back to the same card or account through PayHere; bank-transfer and cash-on-delivery orders are refunded by bank transfer to the account you tell us. For a change-of-mind return, the original delivery charge is not refunded.
How long refunds take
We issue an approved refund within five working days — for a return, once the returned piece has been received. After that, your bank or card provider may need a few more days before it shows on your statement.
Return postage
For a change-of-mind return, you pay the postage. If a piece arrives damaged, faulty or materially different from its listing, we pay the return postage and refund the delivery charge as well.
Exchanges
We don't swap pieces directly, because most are one of a kind. Return the piece within the window for a refund and place a new order for the one you want — email us and we'll help.
What can't be returned
Made-to-order and custom pieces, because they can't be resold, and food, spices and tea once opened, for hygiene reasons — unless they are faulty or not as described, in which case we always put it right.
Damaged or faulty items
If a piece arrives damaged or faulty, photograph the parcel and the piece and email us the pictures with your order reference. We'll arrange a replacement or a full refund, including delivery.
How to start a return, and who to ask
Email your order reference to returns@ceylona.lk and we'll confirm the next step the same day. Questions about this policy? Use the same address.
