Product Detail
Please be aware that most of our products are either handmade or may be produced in a manner in which there can be variation in the products (such as the use of hand weaving and natural dyes). Due to the nature of our products slight variations will be naturally occurring.  We have lovely handcrafted items, we do not sell mass produced standardized (cookie cutter) products.  Please note before purchase, if you have questions about a product please contact us we are happy to help.

Products are described as accurately and appropriately as possible in order to ensure that a customer understands the product they are ordering. The descriptions, data, pictures, and information on our web site are intended to be accurate at time of upload to our site. All information is subject to change without notice. Photos are shown as a representation of the product only and may show optional features, colors, or variations that are not included.

Colors are represented as realistically as possible, but color variations of product images or color swatches are outside of our control because software, hardware and Internet connections can alter the appearance of colors.
