However, we do not warrant that product descriptions, colors, scents, or other content on the Site are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. Candles are handmade, so minor variations in appearance, color, or scent strength may occur.

All orders are subject to acceptance and availability. We will notify you if we cannot fulfill your order.

4. Shipping and Delivery

Shipping times and costs are estimated and may vary. We are not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers, customs (for international orders), or unforeseen events. Risk of loss and title for products pass to you upon delivery to the carrier. For full details, please refer to our Shipping Policy (if applicable).

5. Returns and Refunds

Our Return Policy governs all returns, refunds, and exchanges. Please review it on our dedicated Return Policy page before purchasing. In general, we do not accept returns on opened or burned candles due to hygiene and safety reasons, except in cases of damage, defect, or our shipping error.

Burn candles on a heat-resistant, stable surface away from flammable materials, drafts, children, and pets.

Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each use.

Keep the wax pool free of debris.

Do not burn a candle for more than 4 hours at a time.

Discontinue use when ½ inch of wax remains.

We are not responsible for any injury, damage, or loss resulting from improper use, failure to follow safety instructions, or misuse of our products. By purchasing our candles, you acknowledge that you have read and will follow all safety guidelines provided with the product or on our Site.

Warning: Burning candles can cause fire, injury, or death. Use at your own risk.
