We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate and current information on our website. However, we are not responsible if information made available on this site is inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or contains typographical errors.

The material on this site is provided for general information only and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for making purchasing decisions without reviewing all applicable product details, policies, measurements, shipping information, and other relevant information.

Section 6 — Natural Materials, Handmade Products, and Product Variation

Many of our products are handmade from natural materials, including solid wood, teak, reclaimed wood, live-edge wood, suar wood, boat wood, root wood, and other organic or hand-finished materials.

Because of the nature of these materials and construction methods, variations are expected and are part of the character of the product. These may include, but are not limited to:

• Variations in color, tone, texture, and grain
• Knots, mineral marks, natural imperfections, and organic markings
• Checking, hairline cracks, seasonal movement, and natural expansion or contraction
• Distressing, worn paint, weathered areas, patches, or rustic characteristics
• Differences in live-edge shape, root shape, slab shape, or one-of-a-kind forms
• Slight variations in size, dimensions, weight, finish, or construction
• Differences between product photos and the exact item received

These natural characteristics and variations are not considered defects unless otherwise determined by Chic Teak Inc. in accordance with our applicable warranty or return policies.

Product photos are intended to represent the general style, construction, and character of the item. For natural, rustic, handmade, reclaimed, live-edge, root, or one-of-a-kind products, the exact item received may vary from the photos shown.

Section 7 — Product Availability, Backorders, and Lead Times

Product availability, lead times, shipping times, and estimated delivery dates are estimates only and are not guaranteed.

Some items may become unavailable, delayed, discontinued, damaged, backordered, or otherwise unable to ship after an order is placed. This may occur due to inventory discrepancies, supplier delays, freight delays, import delays, quality control issues, or other circumstances outside our control.

If an item becomes unavailable or delayed, we may contact you with available options, which may include waiting for restock, selecting an alternative item, modifying the order, or canceling the affected item for a refund.

We are not responsible for delays caused by suppliers, carriers, customs, weather, natural disasters, labor issues, port delays, incorrect customer information, delivery restrictions, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Section 8 — Accuracy of Billing, Shipping, and Account Information

We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or limit any order you place with us.

We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, per business, per shipping address, per billing address, per payment method, or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same payment method, and/or orders using the same billing or shipping address.

We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers, distributors, freight forwarders, or other unauthorized commercial buyers.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, account, billing, shipping, phone, and email information for all purchases made through our store. You agree to promptly update your account and order information so that we can complete your transaction, arrange delivery, and contact you as needed.

We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or update information or cancel orders if any information in the Service is inaccurate at any time, including after you have submitted an order and received an order confirmation.

We reserve the right to cancel or refuse any order due to pricing errors, inventory errors, product description errors, shipping calculation errors, suspected fraud, unauthorized reseller activity, payment issues, delivery restrictions, or other circumstances affecting the order.

If your order is canceled after payment has been processed, we will issue a refund for the canceled portion of the order.

Section 10 — Shipping, Freight Delivery, and Customer Responsibilities

Large furniture items may ship by parcel carrier, freight carrier, LTL carrier, local delivery service, white glove provider, or another delivery provider selected by us or our shipping partners.

Unless otherwise stated in writing, delivery is curbside and does not include inside placement, unpacking, assembly, debris removal, movement up or down stairs, elevator handling, long-distance carrying, or placement in a specific room or outdoor area.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that the delivery location is accessible and that items will fit through gates, driveways, doors, hallways, stairways, elevators, and other access points. Customers are also responsible for providing accurate delivery information and being available for scheduled delivery appointments when required.

Additional charges may apply for missed appointments, redelivery, storage, remote delivery locations, limited-access locations, address changes, refused shipments, return freight, special delivery requirements, or services not included in the original shipping quote.

Customers should inspect all shipments upon delivery. Any visible damage, shortage, missing item, or delivery irregularity should be noted on the delivery receipt before signing. Photos of the packaging and product should be taken whenever possible.

Failure to inspect and document damage or shortages at delivery may limit our ability to file a carrier claim or provide a remedy.

Section 11 — Returns, Refunds, and Exchanges

Returns, refunds, exchanges, cancellations, and related remedies are governed by our Return Policy, Refund Policy, Shipping Policy, Warranty Policy, and any written terms provided with the product or order.

Certain products may be final sale, custom, special order, clearance, oversized, used, open-box, or otherwise ineligible for return unless required by law or approved by Chic Teak Inc. in writing.

Returned items must be in the condition required by our Return Policy and must be returned using approved methods and packaging when applicable.

Shipping charges, return freight, restocking fees, or other costs may apply as described in our policies or as otherwise permitted by law.

Damage or issues caused by misuse, abuse, neglect, improper assembly, improper maintenance, unauthorized modification, improper storage, normal wear and tear, commercial misuse, exposure outside the product’s intended use, failure to follow care instructions, or natural characteristics of wood are not covered unless otherwise required by law.

Natural checking, weathering, color changes, grain variation, seasonal movement, surface variation, rustic distressing, and other natural characteristics of solid wood or reclaimed materials are generally not considered defects.

Some products may require assembly, maintenance, care, sealing, oiling, protection from standing water, use in covered areas only, or other care steps depending on the item and material. Customers are responsible for reviewing and following all applicable product instructions, care information, and warranty requirements.
