Assumption
In every part of this document in which COKI® or COKI is written, it means the sole proprietorship with the administration of Coki Barbieri, designer, and founder of COKI® label with the following legal data: Via Consolare 148, Rimini RN (47923) ITALY, P.IVA 04373700402; in every part of this document in which "buyer/the buyer" is written, it means the person who buys the goods, even if it’s different from the person who receives the good (and about who the buyer give to COKI the shipping referments). The official language of all documents exchanged with COKI® must be English; other languages are not accepted except Italian.
1.0 PRODUCTS
COKI's entire production is done by hand, using sculpture and glass blowing, making each piece different from the others, even if they are from the same series. Products may have unique characteristics, including handcrafted details that differ slightly from the catalog photos. Colors, textures, inclinations, and stability depend on the product's artistic nature and cannot be considered manufacturing defects. Requesting customizations and handwritten writings on the glass with the customer's name or Coki's signature is possible.
COKI manufacturing involves the best raw materials from the Italian territory, many of which have been disused for decades or not stored in industrial quarries. These materials need research projects by Coki Barbieri and requests for the specific needs of our laboratory. COKI reserves the right to change the price specifications or discontinue any product. Each price in the list is weighted considering all these specificities.
COKI pieces are made by Coki Barbieri and her artisans using techniques that involve a lot of manual work. It is expected that there will be differences in appearance between pieces of the same model, so this fact can’t be considered a manufacturing defect. In particular, the dealer agrees to the following points:
all the vases of the Cochlea collection are composed of 2 or 3 pieces to be assembled;
the components of a vase are not interchangeable with those of another of the same collection;
the handcrafted stone components, given their natural origin, can show differences in color, texture, and presence of fossils between different pieces;
the color tone of the glass and stone may be slightly different between different production series;
the color tone of the rock salt crystals is somewhat different between different production series, as only vegetable and mineral pigments are used;
* the stone's color is permanent over time. Still, within the first 2-4 months, it becomes less intense due to the natural absorption process of the transparent surface treatment, which is naturally based, applied following the techniques of the ancient Roman artisans;
any white efflorescence present on the stone is to be considered completely natural and unpredictable (it depends on the salts contained in the stone), given the natural treatment that is performed on the surface;
do not wet the stone components, do not wet the rock crystal surfaces of the stone, and follow the instructions in the packaging;
the colors and screen resolutions of computers may vary. Minor color deviations are, therefore, not considered a defect within the meaning of the Italian regulation.
each item is handmade and unique so the shape might differ slightly from the one pictured.
1.1 ORDERS AND PRODUCTION TIME
The buyer may place online orders 24 hours a day. COKI only handles orders from 9 AM to 5 PM on business days.
Production times vary for each product. The standard production time at the laboratory is 4 to 12 weeks, depending on quantities and time of the year. COKI will confirm the lead time when the buyer places the order. For product customization requests, waiting times may increase by 3-5 days. All products in the catalog are only made-to-order; COKI does not overproduce and store items.
COKI is an artisan laboratory that offers a maximum commitment to sustainability regarding the choice of healthy natural raw materials and the entire production cycle and surface treatments. This work style requires the stone artisans to respect certain natural times for sorting, processing the raw material, and drying the surface treatments. By only using open-air drying and sun heat to produce the stone materials, production times can slow down during the cold season. During specific periods of the year, such as Italian holidays, participation in trade fairs and sector events, and non-programmable emergency events, production times may be extended; you will be notified promptly as soon as you place the order.
