FAQs
Your most asked questions
Orders and Payments
CAN I CHANGE/CANCEL MY ORDER?
Unfortunately, cancellations or changes are not possible. Once you place your order, we begin production right away to ensure we meet the quoted lead time.
CAN I RUSH MY ORDER?
We generally require the full production time stated on each product page. If you have a specific deadline in mind, please contact us and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request. All orders require a minimum of 2 weeks for production. Please note that requests involving more complex designs, certified stones, or fancy cut stones are unlikely to be expedited, as these require time to source and select.
WHAT PAYMENT METHODS DOES TINXX ACCEPT?
We accept major credit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay through Shopify Payments.
ARE DUTIES AND TAXES INCLUDED IN THE PRICES LISTED?
Duties and taxes are not included in the prices listed. Instead, duties and taxes are calculated at checkout. Your order will arrive Delivered Duty Paid (DDP), so there are no additional fees on arrival.
ARE PRICES ON TINXX SUBJECT TO CHANGE?
Yes, prices on tinxx may be subject to change. Due to fluctuating market conditions, such as gold and diamond prices, we may occasionally adjust our prices to reflect these changes. The price listed at the time of your purchase is the final price you will be charged.
IS IT SAFE TO ORDER ON TINXX?
Absolutely. Shopping on tinxxjewelry.com is safe and secure. Our checkout is powered by Shopify, and we guarantee that every order will be processed and fulfilled with care. You'll receive an order confirmation, tracking details, and customer support is always here to help you with any questions you have.
DOES TINXX OFFER FINANCING OR PAYMENT PLANS?
Not yet, but we’re working on it! As we grow, we plan to offer financing and payment plans in the future. Stay tuned.
HOW IS YOUR PRICING DETERMINED?
We understand that lab grown diamond pricing can vary widely; you may come across lower prices, or sometimes much higher. At tinxx, we take a fair approach. Our pricing reflects not just the materials, but the care, expertise, and thought that go into every piece.
We use 18K solid gold, not vermeil, and not 14K or 10K. With its higher gold content, 18K offers a richer finish and also comes at a higher cost than the lower karat weights commonly used in commercial fine jewelry. We source all raw materials ourselves, hand-selecting stones for their cut, clarity, color, and overall quality. Each piece is made to order with care and supported by decades of trusted industry experience.
From our jewelry to our packaging to our customer support, every detail matters. We apply a fair, consistent markup that allows us to maintain uncompromising quality, with every piece reflecting the time, skill, and care involved.
We also provide complimentary shipping worldwide. International orders are shipped via DHL Express from Hong Kong with insurance. As shipping is costly, our pricing outside Hong Kong may be slightly higher.
As a small business, kindly understand that we’re not yet able to offer free returns or exchanges for sizing. Please double-check your measurements before placing your order, and feel free to reach out if you need help, we’re always happy to assist.
DO YOU OFFER MORE SIZES THAN WHAT'S LISTED ON YOUR WEBSITE?
Due to the high variance in gold and diamond usage across sizes, we list a limited selection on our website. However, if you’re interested in a different size, please contact us for a tailored quotation.

WHAT ARE THE TINXX SHIPPING FEES AND DELIVERY TIMES?
Shipping is included on all orders.

Your shipping confirmation email will provide the tracking details.
As we require a direct signature for all deliveries, if the tracking shows that your parcel has been delivered, please verify if someone else at your address has signed for it or if it was left with a neighbor.

Engraving and Personalization
DO YOU OFFER ENGRAVING?
Yes, we offer engraving on most of our products. If engraving is available, you will have the option to enter your personalization on the product page, subject to the stated character limits.
CAN I MAKE THE ENGRAVING LONGER?
The character limits shown on each product are what have worked best in the past for legibility and finish. If you’re keen to go longer, please contact us and we’ll check what’s possible for your specific piece. Some designs are simply too small to accommodate more characters. Share what you have in mind, and we’ll advise on feasibility and alternatives.
CAN I CUSTOMIZE THE FONT FOR ENGRAVING?
We use a clean, standard sans serif font for all engravings. At this time, we are not able to offer font customization, but if you have a specific request, please reach out and we’ll do our best to see what’s possible.
CAN I MAKE CHANGES TO THE ENGRAVING ON MY ORDER?
If you need to make any changes to the engraving on your order, please contact us within 48 hours of your purchase.
CAN I MAKE CHANGES TO THE ENGRAVING AFTER THE ORDER HAS ARRIVED?
Unfortunately, we are unable to make changes to the engraving after your order has arrived. As each piece is custom-made to order, we recommend double-checking the engraving details before confirming your purchase.
Still have questions? We're happy to help! Please contact us here.
Gold
WHAT GOLD DOES TINXX OFFER?
We offer solid gold in 14K and 18K. 18K gold is composed of 75% pure gold, which gives it its warm, saturated color and luxurious feel. 14K gold contains 58.3% pure gold, with a higher proportion of alloy metals that add extra strength and resilience for everyday wear. Both are solid, fine gold. Choose the one that suits the way you live and wear your jewelry.
WHAT GOLD COLORS DOES TINXX OFFER?
We offer our designs in solid white, yellow, and rose gold, so you can choose the finish that best suits your skin tone and personal style. Whether you lean toward the cool elegance of white gold, the warmth of yellow gold, or the soft, romantic tone of rose gold, each piece is crafted from solid gold for rich color, lasting durability, and a luxurious feel.
IS YELLOW, WHITE, AND ROSE GOLD THE SAME PRICE?
Yes. Because the gold content is exactly the same in all three colors, the pricing does not vary. The difference is purely in color and personal preference, not in value.
