* Our Site will guide you through the steps you need to take to place an order with us. Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order at each page of the order process.

* After you place an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. However, please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we send you an e-mail that confirms that the Artworks have been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation). The Contract between us will only be formed when we send you Dispatch Confirmation. Keep in mind that if the Artwork is not in stock it can take up to 14 weeks for a new casting to be shipped out.

* If we are unable to supply you with an Artwork, for example because that Artwork is no longer available or because of an error in the price on our site as referred to in clause 14, we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Artworks, we will refund you the full amount. 

10. OUR RIGHT TO VARY THESE TERMS

* We amend these Terms from time to time. Please look at the top of this page to see when these Terms were last updated and which Terms were changed.

* Every time you order Artworks from us, the Terms in force at the time of your order will apply to the Contract between you and us

* We may revise these Terms as they apply to an order which you have already made if that is necessary to reflect a change in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.

If we have to revise these Terms as they apply to your order, we will contact you to give you reasonable advance notice of the changes and let you know how to cancel the Contract if you are not happy with the changes. You may cancel either in respect of all the affected Artworks or just the Artworks you have yet to receive. If you opt to cancel, you will have to return (at our cost) any relevant Artworks you have already received and we will arrange a full refund of the price you have paid, including any delivery charges.

11. YOUR CONSUMER RIGHT OF RETURN AND REFUND

This clause only applies if you are a consumer.

* If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel a Contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations during the period set out below. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep an Artwork, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund.

* However, this cancellation right does not apply if your purchase of an artwork includes a custom-made item or is a commissioned artwork.

* Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date when we confirm dispatch, which is when the Contract between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Contract then depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered, as set out below:

Your Contract End of the cancellation period.

Your Contract is for a single artwork:  The end date is 7 days after the day on which you receive the Artwork.

Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the Artwork on 10 January you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 17 January.

Your Contract is for multiple Artworks which are delivered on separate days:  The end date is 7 days after the day on which you receive the last of the Artworks ordered.

Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the first instalment of your Artwork or the first of your separate Artworks on 10 January and the last instalment or last separate Artwork on 15 January you may cancel in respect any or all of the separate Artworks at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 22 January.

* To cancel a Contract, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to do this is via Email. If you use this method we will e-mail you to confirm we have received your cancellation.

You can also contact us by any method shown in clause 1. If you are e-mailing us or writing to us please include details of your order to help us to identify it. If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the e-mail or post the letter to us. For example, you will have given us notice in time as long as you get your letter into the last post on the last day of the cancellation period or e-mail us before midnight on that day.

* If you cancel your Contract we will:

(a) refund you the price you paid for the Artworks. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.

(b) in the case of Artworks returned from addresses in the United States of America: refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer;

(c) make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:

(i) if you have received the Artwork and we have not offered to collect it from you: 14 days after the day on which we receive the Artwork back from you. For address details, see clause 1;

(ii) if you have not received the Artwork or you have received it and we have offered to collect it from you: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract.

* If you have returned the Artworks to us under this clause because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of the Artworks in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us. Please note that we must have opportunity first to opt to collect the artwork from you.

* We will refund you on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay. 

* If an Artwork has been delivered to you before you decide to cancel your Contract:

(a) then you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the Contract. You can either send it back, or return it to us at the address given in clause 1;

(b) unless the Artwork is faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 6.6), you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Artworks to us. If the Artwork is one which cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the Artwork to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery.;

* Because you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Artworks that are in conformity with this Contract. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Artworks that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause or anything else in these Terms.

12. DELIVERY

* Delivery within the US will usually be within 2 weeks, if not sooner depending on size and wight of the artwork, delivery to destinations outside of the US will be by the most efficient appropriate method and usually within 30 days.

* Following placement of your order we will send you an email to confirm the estimated delivery date.

* Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 17 for our responsibilities when this happens.

* Delivery of an Order shall be completed when we deliver the Artwork to the address you gave us and the Artwork will be your responsibility from that time.

* You own the Artwork once we have received payment in full, including all applicable delivery charges if applied.

13. INTERNATIONAL DELIVERY

* You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order.

* The price of an Artwork does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your order (if applicable).

* Our site contains a large number of Artworks. It is always possible that, despite our efforts, some of the Artworks on our site may be incorrectly priced. If we discover an error in the price of the Artworks you have ordered we will contact you [in writing and/or phone call] to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Artwork at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Artworks to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
