All products are described as accurately as possible. Minor variations in colour, surface texture, or finish may occur due to the handmade nature of the candles and do not constitute defects.

Product images are for illustrative purposes.


3. Prices

As Silvanité is currently not VAT-registered, no VAT is charged.

Shipping within Switzerland is complimentary unless otherwise stated.

Silvanité reserves the right to change prices at any time. The price valid at the time of order applies.

The risk transfers to the customer upon handover of the parcel to the shipping provider, unless otherwise required by law.
