GENERAL CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. General clause :
Our sales are subject to current general terms and conditions as applied to all purchases.

2. Confidentiality :
All reports, plans, designs and documents provided by the Vendor remain his property. They may not be given to third parties, for any reason whatsoever.

3. Constitution of the Contract :
We acknowledge receipt of all requests for information. After careful study a quote is prepared containing specific clauses as well as the general terms of sale. If the Purchaser accepts the quote, the order will be deemed to have been accepted by us after payment according to the modalities and time limits laid down in our offer or quote.

4. Time Limits :
Production deadlines are set out in the quote and are purely for information. Any possible delay in delivery will not give the Purchaser the right to cancel the order or to claim compensation.

5. Delivery - Transport - Insurance :
Our objets d'art are packed for transport under normal conditions and are insured against loss or possible damage during transit. It is imperative that the Purchaser checks the condition of the goods on delivery as damage can occur. In case of any problem, the Purchaser must inform the transporter within the relevant legal time limits and also immediately inform the Vendor by email and then in writing.
Transport costs are the responsibility of the Purchaser and are calculated and set out in the initial quote.

6. Prices - Payment - Taxes :
Where delivery is to an agreed address outside the European Union, the prices quoted do
not include tax and duty payable. ( DDU, Incoterms 2000 ).
For customers of countries within the European Union the prices quoted are inclusive of
all taxes and free of customs duty.
Prices are given in the quote and remain fixed upon receipt of payment and our
confirmation of agreement. Because of the unique character of our objets d'art, payment,
including a provisional sum to cover transport costs, must be made at the time the order is
placed. In order to ensure the security of transactions, payment is to be made in advance
by inter-bank transfer. Customers will be advised of our bank details upon acceptance of
the quote.

7. Guarantee :
Articles which are sold are guaranteed against possible hidden defects according to Article
1641 of the Civil Code. If a customer believes he has found a defect, he should
immediately provide the Vendor with relevant proof. The Vendor reserves the right to
undertake any verification he considers necessary. The Purchaser agrees to accept the
Vendor's recommendations.

8. Litigation : Competent Legal Authorities - Law applicable :
In the absence of agreement, any eventual lawsuit relating to a sale made by us will be the exclusive domain of the French courts and more precisely that of Quimper, France in the first instance. The French legal authorities will apply French Law.
