As our products are handcrafted, natural, and artisan-made, minor variations in colour, grain, texture, finish, and dimensions are inherent to their nature and are not considered defects.
We make every effort to display product imagery accurately; however, the appearance of Products on your screen may vary due to monitor settings, screen resolution, and photographic conditions. Colour representations are not guaranteed to be an exact match to the physical product.
Custom and Bespoke Orders
We accept custom and bespoke orders for wholesale and bulk buyers. Custom orders are subject to separate written specifications and approval processes. Once a custom order has been confirmed and production has commenced, changes or cancellations may not be possible. Please refer to our Refund and Cancellation Policy for full details.

All Products are subject to availability. We reserve the right to discontinue, modify, or substitute any product without prior notice. In the event a confirmed product becomes unavailable after order placement, we will notify you and offer alternatives or a full refund as appropriate.
Pricing and Payment
Pricing
All prices quoted on the Website, in catalogues, or in correspondence are indicative only unless specified in a Proforma Invoice.

Confirmed prices are those stated in the Proforma Invoice issued by the Company.
Prices may be quoted in Indian Rupees (INR), US Dollars (USD), Euros (EUR), Pound Sterling (GBP), or other agreed currencies. Currency conversion costs and foreign exchange risks are borne by the Buyer.
Taxes, Duties, and Import Charges
Quoted prices are exclusive of applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. For domestic Indian orders, GST (Goods and Services Tax) will be applied where applicable. For export orders, the Buyer is solely responsible for all import duties, customs taxes, VAT, excise duties, and any other charges levied by the destination country’s authorities.

In the event of non-payment or delayed payment, the Company reserves the right to withhold shipment, cancel the order, retain any advance payments as partial compensation for losses incurred, and pursue all available legal remedies.
Orders and Contract Formation
Inquiry and Quotation
Submitting an inquiry through our Website or by email does not constitute a binding order. An Order is only formed when the Buyer has received and accepted a Proforma Invoice issued by the Company and has made the required advance payment (or provided an agreed Letter of Credit or payment instrument).
Order Confirmation
Upon receipt of the advance payment, the Company will issue a written Order Confirmation. The Order Confirmation sets out the agreed product specifications, quantities, pricing, delivery timeline, and applicable Incoterms.
Minimum Order Quantities
Certain products are subject to minimum order quantities (MOQs), which will be communicated during the quotation process. The Company reserves the right to decline orders that fall below the applicable MOQ without prior notice.
Samples
Sample orders may be available for select products. Sample pricing and policies will be communicated upon request and are subject to separate terms.
Production and Lead Times
Production and delivery lead times are estimates provided in good faith and are subject to change based on production complexity, order volume, seasonal demand, and availability of raw materials. The Company will make reasonable efforts to inform the Buyer promptly of any material delays.
Lead times commence from the date of receipt of advance payment and final confirmation of product specifications. The Company shall not be liable for reasonable delays in production that are beyond its control, including but not limited to raw material shortages, force majeure events, or government-mandated disruptions.
Shipping and Export
All shipping, export documentation, freight, insurance, and customs processes are governed by our Shipping and Export Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please review the Shipping and Export Policy page on our Website for full details.
