Refund policy

All Paani products are handmade in India using traditional techniques, making each piece unique. No mass production can match the exclusiveness with which our trained and experienced artisans create this piece of art. In a few cases, there may be minor blemishes and imperfections in the making, just as in nature, where no two things are ever the same and yet, each carries its own beauty.

Minor imperfections and marks are within the tolerance range of craftsmanship. As we work with pure copper, it is completely natural that copper could turn darker over time due to oxidation or patina build up. In such a case, you can clean your copper product using sea salt and distilled vinegar.

Cleaning instructions as well as further information and tips about our copper water bottles can be found directly on our FAQ section and also on our cleaning video

If you still wish to proceed with a return then we have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return. 

To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unused and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.

To start a return, you can contact us at hello@paanibottles.com. Please note that we shall provide an address once your email has been looked through. 

If your return is accepted, we shall send you a confirmation email to confirm this. However, the buyer is responsible for covering the shipping charges to returning the item(s) back to Paani within 7 days of confirmation email.

You can always contact us for any return question at hello@paanibottles.com.
