3. Products and Pricing
3.1 Product Descriptions
We strive to display the colors, dimensions, and details of our products as accurately as possible on boutiqueofart.com. However, we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color or texture will be perfectly accurate. All measurements are approximate and may vary slightly due to the handmade nature of certain reproductions. Product descriptions, including references to artists, historical periods, and materials, are provided for informational purposes and are based on information from the original collection.
3.2 Pricing
All prices listed on boutiqueofart.com are in the currency indicated at checkout. We reserve the right to change prices at any time without prior notice. Such changes will not affect orders that have already been confirmed. In the event of a pricing error on the website, we reserve the right to cancel any orders placed for the incorrectly priced item, even after you have received an order confirmation. If we cancel your order due to a pricing error, we will notify you and refund any amounts already charged.
3.3 Availability
Products offered on boutiqueofart.com are subject to availability. Many of our items are produced in limited quantities, especially those tied to special exhibitions or limited-edition releases. If a product becomes unavailable after you place an order, we will notify you as soon as possible and either cancel the affected item (with a full refund) or suggest a comparable alternative, at your option.
4. Orders and Acceptance
When you place an order on boutiqueofart.com, you are making an offer to purchase the products in your cart. We are not obligated to accept your offer. After you submit your order, you will receive an automated email acknowledging receipt of your order. This email does not constitute acceptance of your order. Acceptance occurs only when we send you a separate confirmation email indicating that your order has been processed and prepared for shipment.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order for reasons including but not limited to:
- Product unavailability
- Suspected fraud or unauthorized transaction
- Pricing errors
- Violation of these Terms
- Shipping restrictions to your location
If we cancel your order, we will refund any payments you have made for that order.
5. Payment
All payments must be made in full at the time of checkout using one of the accepted payment methods displayed on boutiqueofat.com. You represent that you are authorized to use the chosen payment method. We use secure third-party payment processors; we do not store your full payment card details on our own servers. In the event of a payment dispute, we may suspend fulfillment of your order until the matter is resolved.

The original artworks, designs, and historical objects that inspire the products sold on boutiqueofart.com are owned by their respective rights holders (including museums, artists, estates, or cultural institutions).

8. Accuracy of Information
We strive to ensure that all information on boutiqueofart.com—including product descriptions, pricing, availability, and shipping details—is accurate and up to date. However, we do not warrant that the information is error-free, complete, or current. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice. If you rely on any information on this website, you do so at your own risk.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, boutiqueofart.com and its owners, officers, employees, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the website or your purchase of any products, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or your purchase shall not exceed the total amount you paid for the specific product giving rise to the claim.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so this limitation may not apply to you in full. In such cases, our liability shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
10. Disclaimer of Warranties
Except as expressly stated in these Terms, boutiqueofart.com provides the website and all products on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that any defects will be corrected.
This disclaimer does not affect any statutory warranties that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer protection laws. For consumers in certain jurisdictions, you may have additional rights that are not affected by this disclaimer.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless boutiqueofart.com and its owners, officers, employees, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:
- Your use of the website
- Your violation of these Terms
- Your violation of any third-party rights, including intellectual property or privacy rights
- Any content you submit to the website (such as product reviews)
We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.
12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms and any dispute arising from or relating to them or your use of boutiqueofart.com shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which our business is established, without regard to its conflict of law principles. For consumers, this governing law provision does not override any mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence.
Informal Resolution: Before initiating any legal proceeding, you agree to attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us through the website form. We will make a good faith effort to resolve the dispute within a reasonable time.
Binding Arbitration (for non-consumer disputes or where permitted by law): If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, it shall be resolved through binding arbitration rather than in court. Arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of a recognized arbitration body. The arbitration shall take place in the jurisdiction of our principal place of business, unless otherwise agreed. Each party shall bear its own costs, except that we will reimburse you for any filing fees if you prevail.
For consumers residing in jurisdictions that prohibit mandatory arbitration clauses, this section may not apply. In such cases, you may bring a claim in the local courts of your country of residence.
13. Force Majeure
Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under these Terms (except for payment obligations) if the delay or failure results from events beyond the party’s reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, war, terrorism, strikes, labor disputes, government orders, pandemics, supply chain disruptions, or failures of telecommunications or internet services. The affected party shall notify the other party as soon as reasonably possible and shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of the force majeure event.
14. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
15. Waiver
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of boutiqueofart.com.
16. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with any policies expressly referenced herein (including our Privacy Policy, Return Policy, and Shipping Policy), constitute the entire agreement between you and boutiqueofart.com regarding your use of the website and your purchase of products. They supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, or proposals, whether oral or written.
17. Assignment
We may assign these Terms or any of our rights or obligations under them without your consent to any affiliate or to any successor in interest in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. You may not assign these Terms or any of your rights or obligations without our prior written consent.
