With exposure to light and air, the wood (cherrywood, maple and oak) will mature to a deeper color. This will be most pronounced in cherrywood, which mellows to a deep copper color. For this reason objects placed on surfaces could leave 'shadows' when removed. Should this happen, exposure to daylight will eventually darken these paler areas.
Leather is a natural product and each hide will have its own individual characteristics and natural marks.

§13. Warranty and liability
The responsibility for the selection, configuration, application and the use of the Products lies with the Customer, or with the buyer of the Products, i.e. the end Customer.
The Customer acknowledges that SHOWROOM does not check the Products that are delivered by the Manufacturers or Suppliers. Should the delivery be incomplete, SHOWROOM will carry out an additional delivery at the earliest possible date. A notice of defects for whatever reason does not release the Customer from his duty to pay the invoice within the payment period that has been agreed upon with SHOWROOM. In case the Customer is entitled to return the Products, e.g. due to a specific agreement with SHOWROOM, the Customer is only and solely entitled to a refunding of the purchase price if the Products have arrived at SHOWROOM in their original package and in re-sellable state.
SHOWROOM does not provide any warranty for the Products they deliver. The Customer is solely entitled to a warranty that the Manufacturer or Supplier might offer. In this case, claims have to be made directly to the Manufacturer or Supplier or to the entities indicated by the Manufacturer. The Customer may also demand from SHOWROOM a cession of possible warranty claims that they might be entitled to in relation to third parties, however, the Customer has to assert these claims at his own risk and expenditure. Further claims by the Customer are excluded.
The Costumer acknowledges that on account of the Manufacturer's warranty provisions that are applicable in the respective case, the warranty is usually limited to the rectification or exchange of the defective/faulty Products, depending on the choice made by the respective Manufacturer or Supplier. Furthermore, any warranty is excluded if third parties have attempted to repair the Products.
We exclude liability for negligent breach of duty, provided these are not contractual obligations. For simple negligent breach of contractual obligations, we are liable for the amount limited only to typical, foreseeable damage. Material contractual obligations are those whose performance makes the proper execution of the contract possible, which endanger the purpose of the contract, and on whose compliance the purchaser regularly relies (cardinal obligations).
§14. Final provisions. Applicable law and place of jurisdiction
SHOWROOM may change these Terms and Conditions act at any time.
Should one or several of these provisions become null and void or ineffective, the validity of the other provisions shall remain unaffected. SHOWROOM shall replace the provisions which are null and void or ineffective by lawful provisions which are as economically equal as possible. The same applies to the filling of possible loopholes in the contract.
These Terms and Conditions and any agreement concluded pursuant to these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by Swiss law, excluding the UN Convention on the International Sales of Goods.
The courts in Zurich shall have exclusive jurisdiction.
