We make every effort to ensure that all product descriptions, specifications, dimensions, and images are accurate. However, errors or omissions may occasionally occur, and we reserve the right to correct them without prior notice.

6. Natural Stone Disclaimer

All our products are handcrafted from genuine natural stone. Since natural stone is formed by nature over millions of years, every piece is unique.

Natural variations are not defects and may include:

  • Colour and shade differences

  • Veining and movement

  • Texture and grain

  • Mineral deposits

  • Natural pores and pits

  • Crystal formations

  • Small natural fissures

  • Fossils or surface markings

These natural characteristics make every product exclusive and cannot be considered a manufacturing defect.

7. Product Images

Product photographs, catalogue images, brochures, videos, social media posts, and AI-generated visualizations are for illustration purposes only.

Actual products may vary slightly due to:

  • Natural stone characteristics

  • Screen settings

  • Lighting conditions

  • Photography

  • Polishing finish

Such differences shall not be considered defects.

8. Handmade Products

Each product is handcrafted by skilled artisans.

Minor variations are normal and acceptable, including:

  • Dimension tolerance of approximately ±1–2 cm

  • Slight weight variations

  • Minor handcrafted edge and finishing differences

These variations are part of handmade craftsmanship and are not manufacturing defects.

9. Custom Orders

Custom Orders are manufactured according to customer-approved:

  • Design

  • Dimensions

  • Finish

  • Texture

  • Carving

  • Special requirements

Once production has started, Custom Orders cannot be cancelled, exchanged, or returned except in the event of a manufacturing error by Oceania Washbasin.

Before manufacturing begins, customers must carefully review and approve all drawings, dimensions, material selections, finishes, and other specifications.

Any changes requested after production has commenced may incur additional charges, revised lead times, or may not be technically possible.

11. Product Specification Guarantee

Oceania Washbasin guarantees that every product will be manufactured according to the customer's final approved specifications.

If the delivered product differs from the approved design, dimensions, material, finish, or customization solely due to our manufacturing error, we will provide an appropriate resolution in accordance with our Replacement Policy.
