Orders, Shipping & Returns
Online Colour
We work hard to make our colours appear as accurate as possible. However, due to device display screen and browser differences, colours may slightly differ compared to what appears online.
Differences in an individuals visual perception of colour and lighting conditions also play a role in the matching of colour.
