Terms
Terms and Conditions
These terms apply to orders placed with Ohtonen Studio. Because every piece is made to order by hand, please read the Refund and Returns section before you order.
Refund and Returns
Made to order, by hand
Every Ohtonen Studio piece is created to order, by hand, from your own photograph. It is unique to you and cannot be resold. This affects your return rights, so please read this before you order.
Cancelling before work begins
You may cancel and receive a full refund any time before the artist begins work on your piece. Work begins once we have received your photograph and started your relief. To cancel, reply to your order confirmation.
Change of mind after work begins
Because each piece is made to order and personalised to you, it is exempt from the standard distance selling withdrawal right once production has begun. This means we cannot offer a change of mind refund after the artist has started your piece. This does not affect your rights if a piece is faulty or damaged.
Damaged or faulty pieces
If your piece arrives damaged, or with a fault in the making, we will put it right. Contact us within 14 days of delivery with a photograph of the issue and your order number. We will repair the piece, remake it, or refund it, at no cost to you.
Damaged in transit
If the parcel arrives visibly damaged, please photograph it before and after opening if you can, and contact us within 14 days. We handle the claim with the carrier, you do not.
Before final finishing (composition approval)
For most pieces you receive one preview to confirm the pose and composition before the artist applies the final finish. This is your moment to adjust the direction. Once approved, the piece is completed as confirmed.
