3. Fragile Products and Shipping Damage
Our concrete pieces and candle vessels are fragile, and we use protective packaging for shipping.
If your item arrives chipped or broken, please photograph the item and its packaging and contact us within 48 hours of delivery at luminaminimaliststudio@gmail.com. Include your order number. We will gladly arrange a complimentary replacement.
4. Weather Conditions — Candles
High temperatures during transit may temporarily affect the appearance of candles.
Lumina Minimalist Studio is not responsible for:
- Softening or slight surface deformation caused by extreme heat during transit.
- Minor texture changes resulting from exposure to high temperatures.
The quality and functionality of the product are not compromised by these variations.
We recommend receiving your package as soon as possible and avoiding leaving it exposed to sunlight or inside a closed vehicle.
5. Carrier Delays and Claims
Once an order is handed to the carrier, the carrier manages its transportation and delivery. The complimentary replacement commitment for items that arrive chipped or broken, described above, remains applicable.
We are not responsible for carrier delays, packages held due to weather conditions, logistical disruptions beyond our control, or force majeure events. However, we will work with the customer to initiate claims when necessary.
6. Incorrect Address
The customer is responsible for providing accurate shipping information.
If an order is returned due to an incorrect address, an incomplete address, or failure to collect the package, the customer must cover the cost of reshipping.
No refunds will be issued for errors in the information provided at the time of purchase.
7. Packages Marked as Delivered
If the carrier marks a package as delivered, Lumina Minimalist Studio is not responsible for subsequent loss.
We recommend checking with neighbors or building management and contacting the carrier directly.
No refunds will be issued for packages confirmed as delivered.
8. International Shipping
We do not currently offer international shipping. Orders are shipped within the United States only.
9. Legal Compliance
We operate in accordance with the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (FDUTPA) and United States federal e-commerce regulations.
We are committed to communicating timelines and conditions clearly and transparently.
