• Accurately reflect the colours, due to variations in light and colour between different computer monitors.
• Will be the same from one item to another in the case of matching sets, due to slight variations in dye lots and age of orders placed.
• Accurately reflect fabric texture and feel, it is recommended to order a free sample before purchasing.

Though we try to ensure a high standards of colour accuracy, due to slight variations in precise tone and saturation of dyes when applied to fabrics, we cannot guarantee two products ordered separately will be made from the same batch of fabric.

If you require an exact colour match or would like to see any of the fabrics in person, we offer a fast, free sampling service which is recommended on all made to measure products as goods cannot be returned for a refund.

• Samples can vary if renewed from a new cut of fabric or material. Like blind ordering, we would encourage customers to resample if some time has passed since their last sample to reduce this possibility occurring.
• Some of our samples may not show the full range of pattern and colour, if you require additional samples in order to make an informed decision please contact customer care we would be happy to arrange more to be sent out to you.
