2.4 . Any reference to “working days” in the terms means any day which is not a weekend or a bank holiday in England.
2.5. Our team will endeavour to respond to your email within 48 hours of receipt. If we have to contact you we will do so by telephone or by writing to you using the email or postal address you provided us in your order. When we use the words “writing” or “written” in these terms, this includes emails.

3. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU
3.1. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between yourself and us (the “Contract”).
3.2. We will assign you an order number and you will receive confirmation when we accept your order. Whenever you contact us about your order, please tell us the order number.
3.3. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for or because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product.
3.4. Most of our products are handmade; therefore they may vary slightly from their pictures. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products.
3.5. Any drawings, photographs, descriptions or advertising we issue, and any photographs, descriptions or illustrations contained on our site, are issued or published solely to provide you with an idea of the products they describe. They do not form part of the Contract between you and us or any other contract between you and use for the sale of the products.

4. DELIVERY
4.1. Please visit the Delivery section for more information about delivery options.
4.2. We are not responsible for delays outside of our control. If this happens, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take the necessary steps to minimise the effect of the delay. We will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.
4.3. If no one is available at your address to take and sign for the delivery, a Royal Mail worker will leave you a card informing you. Cards can only be left where there is access to secure post boxes, therefore some deliveries to apartment buildings and shared accommodation will not receive delivery cards.
4.4. We may have to suspend the supply of a Product to:
a/ Deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes.
b/ Update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.
We will contact you in advance to inform you we will be suspending supply of the product, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If the period of suspension lasts more than 30 days, you may contact us to end the Contract and we will refund any sum you have paid in advance for the product in respect of the period after ending the Contract.

5. RETURNS/ENDING THE CONTRACT
5.1. Your rights when you end the Contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with the item, how we are performing and when you decide to end the Contract.

If you are entitled to a repair or replacement of a defective product we will not charge you for redelivery of the repaired or replaced product.
