7. Force majeure
7.1. Silka Design shall not be held responsible for the complete or partial failure to fulfill its obligations under this contract, if this non-fulfillment is caused by an event that constitutes force majeure, including but not limited to cases of disruptions or strikes, whether total or partial, in particular of the postal services and means of transport and/or communication, floods, fires, and, in general, events beyond its control.
8. Guarantee
8.1. Tzuri Gueta brand products are handmade. Each piece is unique and, although we take the utmost care, pieces cannot be exactly reproduced identically. The jewelry you order may therefore differ slightly from the model shown on the website.
8.2. The products of the Tzuri Gueta brand apply to the legal guarantee of conformity and the legal guarantee against hidden defects. This warranty works for defects already present on the date of delivery and is valid for 24 months from the date of dispatch to the customer subject to normal use of the product.
8.3. Tzuri Gueta brand cannot be held responsible if the products are subjected to conditions that are incompatible with those set forth in the recommendations for use or to any other extreme situation such as variations in temperature, over-exposure to light, exposure to smoke and repeated immersions.
8.4. In the event of a defect, you may inform us by email at contact@silkadesign.com. The defective item must be sent back via the post office services to our workshop: 1 Avenue Daumesnil, 75012 Paris, France.
8.5. The evaluation of any manufacturing defect will be carried out at the discretion of the Silka Design workshop. Slight variations in size or color, for example, result from being hand crafted and cannot be considered as flaws. Similarly, the normal ageing of a product (fading of colors, alteration in the feel of the material to the touch) cannot constitute a condition for the exchange or return of the product.
8.6. Beyond the duration of the guarantee, a defective piece of jewelry may be repaired in the brand’s workshop. An estimate of the cost of repair shall be sent to the buyer within 72 hours of the defective item being dealt with.
