Product Specific Terms and Conditions

​

"Painting Answers"

All of the above Terms and Conditions apply apart from whereby the following Terms and Conditions negate them:

William will aim to complete the painting and dispatch it within 5 - 10 working days following the receipt of the answers from either the purchaser or gift recipient.

Due to the nature of this product being bespoke and made to order, refunds cannot be issued unless work has not yet been started on the piece.

Images illustrated on product page are examples only and the final bespoke product will be different.

 

DISCLAIMER

 

Whilst every effort has been made to match the colour of items displayed on our website to the Product/Artwork in its physical form, colours may differ slightly from the images on the website/ display on your monitor. William Watson-West cannot be held liable for minor differences.

 

Greetings Cards Disclaimer

Product details may vary depending on the print run of the item being sold. This primarily refers to the reverse of some of our greetings cards where the branding has changed slightly on some cards. Images shown on our online shop are as accurate as possible, but there may be some variation amongst individual products.

​

Greetings Cards Packaging

Our latest batches of greetings cards are packaged individually in compostable, biodegradable and recyclable NATIVIA® bio-based film. This Polylactic Acid (PLA) film is an industrially compostable (according to the European standard EN 13432) packaging solution made from renewable raw materials. The bags should be placed with your garden waste or food waste if your Council does the relevant collections.

Our older greetings card packaging, which is still in use for some of our items, is made from BOPP film and although not biodegradable, is recyclable. 

 

Although we ensure every product is produced to the highest of standards, due to the nature of printing there may be inherent flaws in some of the prints. William Watson-West cannot be held liable for any minor flaws within the print or, where this applies, the fabric/material itself. 

The intensity of colours in Artworks/Products may fade over time; this is a natural process. Keep out of direct sunlight to minimise the risk of fading. William Watson-West cannot be held liable for the deterioration of Artworks/Products over time.
