Vintage items may have some light wear and manufacturing imperfections. If there are any noticeable problems or issues, such as chips, cracks or other, they will be clearly described in words, as well as pictures. Please refer to the photos for details, using the zoom feature for close up, as with all vintage items they provide a more detailed description of the item in question. It is normal to find minor manufacturing flaws in older pieces including glassware and stoneware pieces, such as line striations, variations in colors, pieces of ash, white marks, bubbles, etc. These do not affect quality and function. Colors may show up differently on your screens and devices. Please feel free to message me with any questions. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************** CARE/CLEANING Each item I have in my shop is meticulously cleaned using the most natural methods. I use unscented laundry detergents, and cleaners. It is recommended to wash your vintage item by hand, as it will add more years to it's life. The prints on glassware are especially vulnerable to harsh chemicals used in dishwasher detergent. Capucine Vintage Home is a smoke, scent, mold, and pet free business. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************** SECURE DELIVERY LOCATION Please be sure that your receiving location is secure.

If a Porch Pirate makes off with your package it won't be covered by shipping insurance. It is also advisable to leave me your phone number for the mail carrier to contact you if there are any issues with delivery, instead of sending the parcel back to me. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************ SHIPPING/ITEM DAMAGED IN TRANSIT Your special item(s) will be packaged with utmost care with clean recycled materials when available, and placed in a double box when necessary to prevent breakage.
