At Adorno we want our customers to know their rights, feel secure to use our services, and understand our commitments. The terms and conditions outline the regulations for the use of the Adorno Platform located at www.adorno.design.
When making a purchase you are asked to confirm that you have understood the terms and conditions. If you do not confirm, a purchase cannot be completed. In case of questions, please contact us at info@adorno.design, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Be aware that we can make changes to the present terms and conditions without notice. It is, therefore, a good idea to review these terms and conditions when you find them suitable.
Concerning legal matters, Danish law is applicable, if not otherwise stated.
The designers on Adorno’s Platform are liable for the design pieces they sell on the platform and are responsible for all information and photos relating to the pieces, including measurements and descriptions. At Adorno, we do our utmost to ensure all information provided is true and accurate.
All pieces referred to as “lighting” and/or “lamps” sold through Adorno are classified as illuminated sculptures and are intended primarily as artistic works. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the individual product descriptions, these pieces are not certified under any regulatory standards or certifications, including but not limited to EC compliance. Buyers acknowledge that these items are acquired as artworks and not as regulated lighting products, and they agree to use them accordingly.If a buyer purchase a piece from a designer located in the same jurisdiction or country value-added tax (VAT) or Sales Tax is included in the price of the piece.
If a buyer purchases a piece from a designer located in a different jurisdiction/country, no value-added tax (VAT) will be added to the price, but the buyer may have to pay customs and duties when receiving the items.
Shipping costs are paid by the buyer and will be charged in addition to the price of the piece and are displayed in the total in cart and checkout.
In case of an error in the price of a piece and/or shipping rate, Adorno will inform the buyer as soon as possible and give the option to cancel or confirm the order with the correct price. The price of a piece might vary over time due to special offers and other circumstances. Special promotions may occur for certain design pieces.
Prices and other information on the pieces exhibited can be changed at any time by the designers. It is the information at the time of the purchase that has to be taken into account by the buyer.
Agreements, including oral agreements, must be confirmed in writing in order to be binding.
Purchases of design pieces can be made by any individual or legal entity legally entitled to enter into such agreements, with a valid payment method and valid delivery address. The buyer has first completed a purchase when clicking the “buy” button.
When a buyer purchases a design piece an email is sent to the buyer confirming the order. The price of the piece, including shipping costs, will be charged from the bank account of the buyer immediately after the buyer has clicked “buy”.
In certain cases, it might be impossible to deliver an order as described, thus Adorno holds the right to cancel any purchase for a full refund, without further notice.
Adorno accepts bank transfers, and credit card payments from all major providers including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, ACH Debit, Apple Pay,
Discover and JB. If you would like to use another payment method than mentioned above, please reach out to sales@adorno.design. Adorno holds the right to change payment solutions at all times, without further notice.
The shipping provider of Adorno will deliver the design piece(s) to the address given by the buyer within the time frame given when purchasing the piece.
The buyer must ensure that the address of delivery is correct and that it is possible to deliver during business hours.
In the case of extra costs for attempted delivery or similar, the customer must cover the full amount of the extra costs.
The time of delivery may depend on, and be made impossible by, external factors; force Majeure, strikes, postal delays, and other extraordinary circumstances.
It is the buyers’ responsibility to inspect the condition of the design piece upon delivery. If a piece is damaged, the buyer must contact Adorno within three days of receiving the piece by sending an email to sales@adorno.design. The email must include the order number, contact information, date of delivery, information about the damage, name of the design piece, a photo of the damages, and condition of the inner and outer packaging.
During shipment, all pieces are insured. Damages inflicted during shipment will therefore never be at the cost of the buyer. If damage occurred clearly because of a faulty produced piece, or insufficient packaging, the designer will cover the return and repair costs. If damage occurred clearly during the shipment, despite sufficient packaging, the insurance or Adorno will cover any return and repair costs. It is, however, crucial that the buyer contact Adorno within three days after the piece has been received with pictures clearly documenting the damage, and the state of the inner and outer packaging.
If a piece is damaged at delivery the buyer has the right to have it repaired, or receive a new design piece, or cancel the purchase for a full refund of the total cost.
Returns are handled according to the existing law of the jurisdiction of the state or country from which the designer sells his/her design pieces. The return rights can, therefore, be different depending on where the designers are located.
In case a buyer wishes to return a design piece, Adorno must be notified by mail to sales@adorno.design within 3 days of successful delivery, and hand over the design piece to the shipping provider before the right of return expires.
Certain transactions may incur a fee between 2.1 – 3.2% dependent on transfer types and country of origin.
The cost of shipments and any additional fees, including but not limited to: customs, duties & taxes is paid by the buyer. A return label will be issued by Adorno, and the price of the product(s) except shipping costs and additional fees will be refunded to the buyer within 30 days after the designer has received the design piece.
We do not accept returns on made-to-order items. Made to order items include, but not limited to: items which were made according to specific dimensions, colors, or other appearances requested by the client, items adjusted for specific country requirements such as lighting plugs, handmade items that require custom boxes for delivery. If a return is requested before delivery is made, the customer will be liable to cover these customization costs

– Some items, especially those of odd sizes or unique dimensions, may not qualify for free shipping promotions.
