A third e-mail, that triggers the contract of sale, will be sent as soon as the order has been processed and the product shipped. The third e-mail includes a shipment tracking number and the details of the carrier.
We reserve the right not to accept orders without disclosing the reasons.

We do not ship incomplete products nor damaged ones. At the delivery time, the customer is responsible to check that the package they are signing for, is not damaged.

The representation of the product(s) on the Website is not a binding offer but an online catalog without commitment. The products displayed on the Website could slightly differ from the one to be delivered, in terms of color, dimension and shape. The difference in color can be due to the hardware used to visualize the product and the light under which the Website is watched. The small difference in dimensions and shape are due to the impossibility to produce identical products. In the assembly of some of our products we use real feathers from non endangered species and the product delivered may slightly differ from the ones displayed on the Website.
