Questions
How do I know these pieces are really handmade in Britain?
Every maker on The Haud applies and is reviewed individually before they can sell, and imports, mass production and resellers are not allowed. Each piece links to the profile of the person who made it, so you can see who they are and where they work before you buy. Payment is taken by Stripe. On UK orders you have at least 14 days from delivery to change your mind, except on personalised and commissioned pieces, and anything faulty or not as described is always covered.
