These general terms and conditions of sale are applicable to any purchase made through the merchant site www.verrerie-kaysersberg.fr (hereinafter referred to as "the Site"), whether the Buyer is a professional or a consumer.

The acquisition of a good through this Site implies the unreserved acceptance by the Buyer of these general conditions of sale.

2. Products for sale

The Company offers for sale all models of articles appearing in the "Online shop" section of the Site..
Each model of item offered for sale is accompanied by a descriptive photo, a characteristic sheet and the sale price including all taxes (TTC) of said model.

The Company makes its best efforts to ensure that the photographic representation of the item model is as faithful as possible to the item offered for sale. However, due to the uniqueness of each of the items produced by hand and by hand, each item of the same model (and therefore of the same name) presents variations in the nuances and arrangement of the added colors. Only the dominant color remains almost constant, which serves as a reference for the name of each item model.
