However, slight variations may occur due to:

  • Screen and display settings

  • Photography and lighting conditions

  • Natural variations in fabrics and dyes

  • Handloom and handcrafted production techniques

  • Differences between individual pieces

Such variations do not necessarily constitute a defect.

Where a product is described as handwoven, handcrafted, hand-embroidered, hand-block printed or otherwise artisan-made, natural variations in texture, weave, motif placement or finish may occur.

These individual characteristics are part of the nature and authenticity of handcrafted textiles.


4. Saree Measurements and Specifications

Product dimensions, including saree length, width, blouse-piece length and other measurements, are provided as accurately as reasonably possible.

Minor variations may occur, particularly in handwoven products.

Customers should review the product specifications before placing an order and contact us if they require clarification.


5. Product Availability

All products displayed on the Website are subject to availability.

Because many of our products may be individually sourced or available in limited quantities, a product may become unavailable before an order can be processed.

6. Prices

All product prices displayed on the Website are in Indian Rupees (INR) unless otherwise stated.

Prices may include applicable taxes as indicated during checkout.

Any price change will not affect an order that has already been accepted and confirmed, except where an obvious pricing error has occurred.


7. Pricing Errors

Although we make reasonable efforts to ensure that product information and pricing are accurate, errors may occasionally occur.

If a product has been listed at an obviously incorrect price due to a technical or human error, we reserve the right to cancel the affected order.

If payment has already been received, the amount paid for the affected order will be refunded.


8. Placing an Order

When you place an order through the Website, you are making an offer to purchase the selected products.

Our Terms & Conditions

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose injected humour and the like There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text.

Why do we use it?

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
  • Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.
  • Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
  • No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful.
