2. Eligibility |

3. Products and Product Descriptions |
- Era Furniture manufactures solid wood furniture using kiln-dried timber and other materials as specified on individual product pages. We make every reasonable effort to display product images, dimensions, and specifications accurately.
- Natural material variation. Our products are made from solid wood, a natural material. Variations in grain pattern, tone, and texture between the product you receive and the images displayed on the Website are inherent to solid wood furniture and do not constitute a defect.
- Screen variance. Colours may appear slightly different depending on your device's display settings. This is not considered a manufacturing or delivery defect.
- Material composition. Our products are primarily crafted from solid wood. Depending on the design and functional requirements of a specific product, certain components may also use other materials such as engineered boards or steel, as specified on the relevant product page. Warranty coverage varies by component and material — full details are set out in our Warranty Policy.
- Made-to-order items. Certain products are manufactured to order following purchase. Estimated production and delivery timelines are indicated on the relevant product page and are approximate, not guaranteed.
- Era Furniture reserves the right to modify, discontinue, or update product designs, specifications, or availability at any time without prior notice.
|
4. Pricing and Payment |
-
All prices listed on the Website are in Indian Rupees (INR) and are inclusive of applicable GST and standard shipping charges, unless stated otherwise on the relevant product page or at checkout.
- Any additional charges beyond standard shipping — for instance, for remote locations, expedited delivery, or special handling — will be clearly disclosed at checkout before you complete your order. Delivery timelines and related terms are governed by our Shipping Policy.
- We reserve the right to correct pricing errors at any time, including after an order has been placed. If a pricing error is identified after your order is confirmed, we will contact you before proceeding, and you will have the option to confirm the order at the correct price or cancel it for a full refund.
- Payments are processed through secure third-party payment gateways integrated with our platform. Era Furniture does not store your card or payment credentials.
- An order is confirmed only upon receipt of full payment (or the agreed advance for made-to-order items) and issuance of an order confirmation by Era Furniture.
|
5. Order Acceptance and Cancellation |
-
Placing an order constitutes an offer to purchase. Era Furniture reserves the right to accept or decline any order at its discretion, including in cases of pricing errors, suspected fraud, product unavailability, or delivery limitations to your location.
- Cancellation of orders, particularly made-to-order pieces, is governed by our Return & Replacement Policy.
- Conduct towards staff. Era Furniture reserves the right to cancel any order, at any stage, where a customer engages in abusive, threatening, or otherwise inappropriate conduct towards our staff, delivery personnel, or representatives — whether in person, over phone, email, or any other channel. In such cases, any amount paid will be refunded in accordance with our standard refund process, less any costs already incurred (such as production costs for made-to-order items or return freight), where applicable.
|
6. Delivery and Risk |
-
Delivery timelines, procedures, and related terms are set out in our Shipping Policy, which forms part of these Terms.
- Third-party logistics. Deliveries are carried out through independent third-party logistics and freight partners engaged by Era Furniture. While these partners operate under agreements with us, Era Furniture is not the carrier, and matters such as transit time, vehicle handling, and last-mile delivery execution are managed by the logistics partner. Shipments are covered by transit insurance arranged through our logistics partners. Era Furniture remains your point of contact for any delivery-related issue, and will coordinate with the relevant logistics partner on your behalf to resolve it.
- Risk in the goods passes to you upon delivery, subject to the terms of our Warranty Policy and Return & Replacement Policy in respect of transit damage or defects.
|
7. Warranty and Returns |
|
Warranty coverage and the return, replacement, and refund process are governed by our Warranty Policy and Return & Replacement Policy respectively, both available on the Website and incorporated into these Terms by reference. These policies set out the standard entitlements available to you — Era Furniture reserves the right to exercise discretion beyond them where doing so is fairer or more practical for a particular situation.
