Terms
Adjoa's commissions typically fall between $290 and $1,600 (quoted and paid in sterling, £220 – £1,200), with a lead time of around 5 weeks. A deposit secures the slot and fabric; the balance is released in stages you approve as the garment takes shape. Every piece is quoted on its own brief — there is no tariff.
Verified, and what that means
Everrissa checked Adjoa's identity, workroom and past work before this atelier was listed, and every commission is run through Everrissa's milestone payments.
Reviews are earned, not imported.
Only a client whose commission with Adjoa has been completed through Everrissa can leave one here. The first will appear when the first piece is delivered.
