ITEM DESCRIPTION While every effort is made to accurately display the colours and textures of items on our website, we cannot guarantee that your computer display will accurately portray the softness and suppleness of for example the wool and/or silk of the weavings, the overall hand-woven finish and fineness, or the beauty and accuracy of the colours of any items. We do not accept any responsibility if there is a misrepresentation of colour and our items cannot be construed as faulty should they vary from the colour, brightness and contrast settings displayed by your individual computer screen. Should you still wish to return your item for a refund, however, it will not be deemed 'faulty' and you will be responsible for the return delivery costs.
