Terms of Service

Disclaimer:

Our products are authentic and mostly one of a kind pieces. We do our best to update our website as often as possible, however we sell our stock on a first come, first serve basis, therefore it is possible for an item to be sold, but still be visible on our website. Sometimes there are products on our website that are not for sale, because they are a part of our personal collection and are used for visual merchandising purposes. 

Please keep in mind when buying antique and vintage items you are purchasing something that is pre-loved. Most items show signs of age-related wear such as marks, variations of surface texture, minor scratches, and other issues associated with age. It’s what form a part of the appearance of vintage pieces, but that’s also what makes them so unique. We provide you with both photos as well as descriptions to provide as much details as possible, as well as provide what history is known to us. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about a particular item.

Some of our items were created before today’s rigorous safety and health standards. Most of our products are sold in their original condition, i.e. lighting fixtures sometimes still have their original wiring which may not be compliant with today’s standards. We advise you to consult with an electrician if you plan to use the products. Please be advised we do not guarantee that the products we sell are compliant with today’s safety and health standards.

Shipping:

We are currently operating as a cash and carry business here in Geneva, Switzerland.  Shipping is complicated and to start out we have decided to operate in such a manner especially since we are offering furniture and other oversized items. 

Returns:

Collector & Curator sells vintage to antique furniture and accessories. The term vintage is defined as 20 years old or older. Purchasing a vintage or antique item means you are acquiring a unique piece that is rare and possibly one of a kind. We take great care to carefully review, measure, and describe all products being sold on this website. Please note all sales are considered final.  If you have any questions or inquiries about the details, condition, or general information about a specific product, please email hello@collectorandcurator.com.
