  3. All invoices will be raised by the seller based on the information provided by the buyer or amended at the time of finalising a purchase.
  4. Placing an order on this website constitutes an irrevocable acceptance of the purchase. Unless rescinded/cancelled by the seller within 2 working days on account of a default by the seller or any prior or continuing breach by the buyer, such acceptance results in an enforceable contract of sale.

Once an order is placed on the website the buyer is required to make payment for the price of the work of art as well as the charges referred to above within 7 working days from the date of placing the order. In the event that the seller does not receive payment within 7 working days the seller reserves the right to cancel the order without prior notice to the buyer. Alternately, and without prejudice to the foregoing, the seller may, at its absolute discretion, hold the work of art for the buyer and charge any storage and insurance costs applicable on the purchase and/or may seek to commence legal proceedings (acting as the agent of the seller) to ensure execution of the contract of sale.

Transit insurance costs will be included in such additional charges, unless specifically advised otherwise by the buyer. In the event that the buyer chooses to himself collect the work of art at the seller’s studio he must do so within two weeks of the seller receiving the payment. In the event that the Work of Art is not so collected within a period of two weeks, storage and insurance costs will be applicable on the purchase and will be determined at the complete discretion of the seller.
