Returns & Exchanges
We hope you love your TESSE pieces, but if something isn't quite right, we're here to help.
Change of Mind Returns
We accept change-of-mind returns within 30 days of receiving your order.
To be eligible for a return, items must be:
-
Unused and unwashed
-
In their original condition and packaging
-
Accompanied by proof of purchase
For hygiene reasons, we cannot accept change-of-mind returns on bedding that has been used or washed.
How to Make a Return
Please email hello@tesse.com.au with your order number and the item you'd like to return. We'll be in touch with instructions on how to send it back.
Return postage for change-of-mind returns is the responsibility of the customer. We recommend using a tracked service, as we cannot guarantee receipt of parcels sent without tracking.
Once your return has been received and inspected, we'll process your refund to your original payment method. Please allow 5–10 business days for the funds to appear, depending on your payment provider.
Exchanges
If you'd like a different print or product, we recommend returning your original item and placing a new order, subject to availability.
Caring for Your Linen
One of the lovely things about linen is that it only gets better with time.
All TESSE bedding is made from 100% European flax linen and stonewashed for softness from the very beginning. With a little care, your linen will continue to soften with every wash and can be enjoyed for years to come.
Washing
-
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C.
-
Wash with similar colours.
-
Use a mild liquid detergent, avoiding bleach.
-
Avoid fabric softeners, as they can leave a coating on natural fibres.
-
Don't overload your washing machine — linen likes a little room to move.
Drying
Line drying is best, preferably in the shade to help preserve the colour of your prints.
If using a tumble dryer, select a low heat setting.
Ironing
There's no need to iron your TESSE linen. We love its naturally relaxed texture and the soft creases that come with it.
If you prefer a smoother finish, iron or steam on a medium setting while the fabric is still slightly damp.
A Note on Natural Linen
As a natural fibre, linen may have small variations in texture, including the occasional slub. These are part of its character rather than imperfections.
