Shipment

How long does it take to ship my goods after I order?

Our jewelry is handcrafted by our goldsmiths after your order and can therefore take 4-6 weeks to arrive. If the ordered product is in stock, we can ship it within 4-5 days.

How much are the shipping costs?

We currently only ship within Germany and Austria. Shipping and returns within Germany are free of charge. Shipping costs to Austria range from €45 to €70, depending on the insured value of the goods.

How can I track the status of my order?

Once we ship your package, you'll receive a personalized tracking number from us, which you can use to check the status of your shipment on the UPS website. Packages to Austria are shipped with DHL and also receive a personalized tracking number that you can check.

Our diamonds

Are lab-grown diamonds 'real'?

Lab-grown diamonds are physically and chemically identical to natural diamonds. They consist of exactly the same crystallized carbon as natural diamonds grown in the earth.

 

Are there lab-grown diamonds with different clarities, colors, and certificates?

Yes. Lab-grown diamonds are graded the same as natural diamonds and vary in color and clarity. Our stones always have a color of F/G and a clarity of FS1/SI. Diamonds weighing 0.30 carats or more come with an IGI (International Gemological Institute) certificate. Diamonds weighing less than 0.30 carats receive a certificate of authenticity from TGB.

 

Where does TGB's gold come from?

We use only recycled 18-karat rose gold, yellow gold, and white gold. We source the gold from a CO2-neutral refinery in Germany.

 

Where is TGB jewelry made?

Our production facility is located in Berlin. We value quality craftsmanship, traditional manufacturing, and short supply chains. Our proximity to our goldsmith enables us to reduce CO2 emissions, while also being close to the product at every stage of production. This allows us to cater to your individual needs. It is important to us to maintain a personal relationship with our producers to ensure that all ZOLA jewelry is manufactured to the highest quality standards.
