Guarantee & Returns, Privacy & Security Policy

All our items are made to order - and cannot be refunded or exchanged unless damaged

Please note: If goods inside the box arrive to you damaged, you must refuse to accept the delivery and state this on the delivery note. If you sign for the goods (by default accepting them in good condition) and then report any damage after that time, no claims for exchange can be accepted. If you are unsure that they are damaged please sign for them 'Received damaged' and you will be covered by our terms and conditions

You must report any damage caused by the delivery within 7 working days. We cannot accept ANY returns for damage or fault if you do not report dam-age or fault within 7 days. Please note, if returning an item because of dam-age or fault you must retain the original box. The company will at its own cost replace goods that are defective on delivery providing we are notified within 7 days of actual delivery or attempted delivery.
You should contact us first by email or phone to arrange the return of a product. Please remember:
Any goods you wish to return must be in their original packaging, unused and undamaged. If you return the goods you should insure them against car-ri er damage. You are responsible for the safe keeping of goods until they are received by us or collected by our agents.
Every care has been taken to ensure that the description and specification are correct at the time of going to press. However, while the colour/position of design reproduction is as close a representation as possible, some variation in the actual goods may occur.
Delivery terms and conditions:
When you have placed your order, you will receive an email within 4 working days detailing the week the goods are expected to be dispatched.
Cushions and other small items are usually sent by a UK or International Courier Standard Parcel delivery. These usually take 2 or 3 working days to arrive from date of despatch.

Missed Deliveries
If you do miss the delivery, you will receive a notification card in your letter-box. The courier will try and redeliver the goods the following working day. If you miss the second delivery, you will need to call the couriers and arrange for redelivery. They may not attempt delivery after that without incurring an additional delivery charge. Failing that, the products will be returned to House Couturier Limited with a charge to pay. Please try to avoid this happening as unfortunately, you may have to pay postage for the products to be sent back to you again.
