TERMS AND CONDITIONS
We take huge pride in the quality of our furniture and accessories and want our customers to be happy with their purchase. If you would like further information regarding anything outlined below please don't hesitate to get in touch. 1. Item Specification and Condition We sell only vintage and antique items. All our pieces have had various life experiences which will have left their mark. Please read item descriptions carefully, we always endeavour to accurately describe any significant issues or faults items may have. Some of our items of garden furniture have been refurbished, others are sold with a more rustic, weathered appearance. The condition will always be stated and buyers should use the accompanying images as a guide. |
All our French armoires are fully refurbished. Each piece is structurally sound but our items will only appeal to buyers who love the quality, character and quirks antique pieces bring. If you are looking for furniture that looks and feels brand new, then Dazzle Vintage Furniture is not for you.
2. Knockdown Armoires
Many of the knockdown armoires we sell are very old. Buyers will receive them disassembled and should expect the subsequent internal parts, such as mortises and tenons, to show their age.
The presence of old worm holes is the most common legacy of age in French furniture. These holes are left long after the woodworm has fled and their presence does not mean that it is alive. We check all our furniture thoroughly, any sign of live woodworm is treated long before sale.
Each buyer will receive a step by step guide to help with the assembly of their specific armoire, but this is a guide only. All the armoires we sell are structurally sound once correctly assembled. It is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that they correctly assemble their own armoire. Please note that some older armoires will require a little more patience and time to assemble than some of the newer pieces.
3. Painted Furniture
We aim to photograph items as honestly as possible, however, images of painted pieces may not always be fully representative of the true paint colour. We use heritage paints by Farrow & Ball, Craig & Rose, Little Greene and Fired Earth. The shades used are stated in the item description and we recommend customers check the paint manufacturer's colour card before purchasing.

4. Furniture and Antique Mirrors Delivery
All our items of furniture and antique mirrors are delivered using a number of trusted furniture couriers. Items will normally be delivered within 2 weeks of purchase but it may take longer for buyers in Scotland. It is the buyers responsibility to make sure that either they or a representative is present to accept the item on the delivery date given. All the couriers we work with offer a 1 man to the doorstep only service. With larger, heavier items buyers must ensure that help is available to the driver at their end. Items will be very carefully handled and transported but it is the buyer's responsibility to check on receipt that their item is complete and undamaged. If fault is found customers must report this to the delivery driver at the time. |

Any damage must also be reported to us on the day of delivery and must be supported by photographic evidence. Note that if you sign for an item and state that you are happy with the condition as delivered you cannot later claim for damage or loss.
