By purchasing or using any of our products, you agree to the following terms and conditions.
1. Orders & Payment
Production begins once the required down payment has been received. The remaining balance must be paid in full before shipment.
Because each piece is made to order, confirmed orders may not be changed, cancelled, or refunded once production has begun, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Federico Stefanovich.
2. Handmade Characteristics
-
All Federico Stefanovich products are handcrafted in collaboration with skilled local workshops. Natural variations in alignment, verticality, leveling, geometry, finish, texture, tone, patina, and assembly are inherent to the handmade production process and are not considered defects.

These variations are part of the character of each piece and may differ slightly from photographs, samples, or previously produced pieces.
3. Shipping, Delivery & Inspection
The purchaser is responsible for providing complete and accurate shipping information and for complying with any customs or courier requirements. Import duties, taxes, and other charges applicable at destination are the responsibility of the purchaser unless otherwise stated in writing.
The shipment must be unpacked and carefully inspected within five (5) calendar days of delivery. Any transportation damage discovered upon delivery or during unpacking must be reported to Federico Stefanovich in writing within this same five (5) day period.
All original packaging must be retained. The purchaser must provide photographs of the packaging, the product before removal from the crate, any damaged areas, and the shipping labels, as well as photographs or video of the unpacking process whenever possible.

Natural variations resulting from the handmade production process are not considered manufacturing defects.
