Terms & conditions

Your use of this website and any order you place through this website are subject to these terms of business.

SALE OF GOODS

These terms and the order constitute the whole agreement between you and us for the sale of the goods. Any amendments thereto must be confirmed in writing. Please ensure that you are happy with these terms before you submit the order, because you will be bound by the terms once a contract comes into existence between us.

Any photographs, samples, drawings, descriptions or advertising we issue, and any colours, images or illustrations, are offered solely to provide you with an approximate idea of the goods they describe. They do not form part of the contract between you and us for the sale of the goods.

If any of these terms are inconsistent with any term of or instruction in the order, the terms in the order shall prevail.

The order is an offer by you to enter into a binding contract which we may accept or decline at our absolute discretion.

These terms shall become binding on you and us when we issue you with an order confirmation, at which point a contract shall come into existence between us.
If you are a consumer (acting outside your business), you may cancel your order in accordance with your rights under the Distance Selling Regulations.

We have the right to revise and amend these terms from time to time. You will be subject to the terms in force at the time that you order the goods from us, unless any change to these terms is required by law or government or regulatory authority (in which case, it will apply to orders you have previously placed that we have not yet fulfilled).

THE GOODS

These terms do not affect your legal rights. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office.

We endeavour to describe all items as fully as possible, to the best of our knowledge.

We will take all reasonable steps to pack the goods properly and to ensure that you receive your order in good condition.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

We do not take responsibility for the hanging of the painting, so cannot be responsible for any injury caused by a picture being hung incorrectly.

RETURNS

Goods can be returned for a full refund within 14 days of purchase. The goods must be returned in exactly the same condition as they were in at purchase.

TITLE AND RISK

Ownership of the goods will only pass to you when we receive payment in full of all sums due for the goods, including delivery charges.

PRICING AND AVAILABILITY

The price of the goods will be as set out on our website at the time we confirm your order. Prices are liable to change at any time, but price changes will not affect orders that we have confirmed.

We reserve the right to withdraw any products from this website at any time and/or remove or edit any materials or content on this website. We may refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any product from this website whether or not that product has been sold, removing or editing any materials or content on the website, refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a pricing error, we are not obliged to provide the goods to you at any incorrect (lower) price.

These prices exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not be liable for any export or import duties, taxes etc. arising as a result of the goods being sent to a destination outside the United Kingdom.

PAYMENT

Payment for all goods must be made in advance at the time of ordering. We accept payment by bank transfer and PayPal.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Subject to clause (b) below, if either of us fails to comply with these terms, neither of us shall be responsible for any losses that the other suffers as a result, except for those losses which are a foreseeable consequence of the failure to comply with these terms.
Neither of us shall be responsible for losses that result from our failure to comply with these terms including, but not limited to, loss of income or revenue, loss of business, loss of anticipated savings, loss of data and/or any waste of time. However, this shall not prevent claims for foreseeable loss of, or damage to, your physical property.

This clause does not include or limit in any way our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, any breach of the obligations implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982, losses for which it is prohibited by section 7 of the Consumer Protection Act 1987 to limit liability or any other matter for which it would be illegal or unlawful for us to exclude or attempt to exclude our liability.

Save as provided in clause (c) above, our liability to you under these terms will not exceed the total value of the order.

EVENTS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL

We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of any of our obligations under these terms that is caused by events outside our reasonable control. This shall include (without limitation) any act, event, non-occurrence, omission or accident beyond our reasonable control such as strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, impossibility of the use of railways, shipping, aircraft, motor transport or other means of public or private transport, impossibility of the use of public or private telecommunications networks or failure by our suppliers to supply the goods to us which are required to fulfil your order.

Our obligations under these terms are suspended for the period that any such event continues, and we will have an extension of time to perform these obligations for the duration of that period. We will take reasonable steps to find a solution by which our obligations under these terms can be performed despite the event outside our control. If we have been unable to resolve any such event within three (3) months we shall be entitled to cancel your order without penalty save for refunding to you the purchase price you have paid.

ASSIGNMENT

You may not transfer any of your rights or obligations under these terms to another person without our prior written consent, which we will not withhold unreasonably. We can transfer all or any of our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights under these terms.

NOTICES

All notices sent by you to us must be sent to the email addresses as set out on this website. We may give notice to you at either the e-mail or postal address you provide to us in the order. Notice will be deemed received and properly served on you 24 hours after an e-mail is sent or three (3) days after the date of posting of any letter. In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that the letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail that the e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

GENERAL

If any court or competent authority decides that any of the provisions of these terms and/or the order are invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, that term will, to that extent only, be severed from the remaining terms, which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

If we fail, at any time while these terms are in force, to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these terms, or if we do not exercise any of our rights or remedies under these terms, that will not mean that we have waived such rights or remedies and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, that will not mean that we will automatically waive any subsequent default by you. No waiver by us of any of these terms shall be effective unless we expressly say that it is a waiver and we tell you so in writing.

If you are under 18, you may only use our website and submit an order under the supervision of a parent or guardian.

These terms shall be governed by English law and we both agree to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
