Warranty
The following applies to our Products:
- Replacement warranty for 12 months for defective products.
Wood is a natural material so it can have unforeseeable changes to its nature. Under the replacement warranty, we will replace any wooden coasters or holders that have cracked or warped out of shape.
This warranty does not cover damages caused by excessive exposure to direct sunlight, going through a dishwasher, or having a hot pan placed on coasters or holders.
This warranty is conditional that your coasters, holders and/or other wooden products are regularly beeswax conditioned at least every 3 months to help preserve the wood’s nature. We recommend our ‘Handcrafted Beeswax Mix’ because it contains oil in addition to beeswax to help preserve the wood.
You will agree to pay for return delivery charge to return the defective products to our office for further assessment. We will gladly replace the defective product free of charge.
We cannot guarantee that the replacement product will be identical to the original due to natural variations in wood. We will do our best to match as close as possible. If we are unable to provide a near match then we will contact you to approve an alternative solution.
