• Normal wear and tear does not come under the warranty. In addition, there are outside elements that may affect your Product’s appearance over time. Many of these conditions are not covered under the manufacturer's warranty. These conditions are normal and are not considered manufacturing defects. These include, but are not limited to the following:
• Since this is a custom handmade product there will always be A Slight variation in color, texture,weave, depth as compared to the original sample, this is not a defect, it’s what gives the product its uniqueness
• Variation in size maybe upto +- 3% of size ordered.
• Slight variation in design from original as this is a handmade Product.
• There May be slight marks from rolling ( the edge of the rug pressing into the pile) and prolonged shipping that will disappear with routine vacuuming.
• Seam peaking from rolling the Product that will disappear with reverse rolling
• Slow Fading is a normal process which will occur over a period of time and can be accelarated by factors like Exposure to sunlight , high humidity , heat or chemicals. Placing rugs in direct and continuous sunlight will cause them to fade. Charcoal colored products will fade in sunlight. We suggest you rotate the rug to reduce potential damage caused by natural light. The darker the rug, the higher chance it will fade. Microsealing can be a way to reduce fading where rugs are exposed to high and direct sunlight.
• Due to changes in pile and weave direction shading may also occur and be more apparent in plain rugs and this is a natural characteristic of carpets and rugs
• All Handmade rugs made from natural fibres will Shed, this is perfectly normal and will decrease and stop over time with regular hoovering. Do NOT USE A BEATER HEAD ( MECHANICAL DRUM ROLLING MACHINE)
• Sprouting: More often occurring in jute and sisal rugs, there will be short fibres popping up while the rug settles and is also caused by furniture placed on top of the rug. This can be trimmed or pushed through, without risking the structural integrity or aesthetic appeal.
• Placing a non-water-resistant Product in a damp or wet area or Damage caused by pets, insects, or Improper cleaning, especially through use of a wet process
• Use of Scotch Guard, which is a third party product, therefore we take no responsibility as to whether it works correctly or not.
