General Terms Of Sale

Online Products, Images & Artisanal Nature

lacantus.com presents a curated selection of premium furniture, lighting, décor and home products, many of which are crafted in the United States by local manufacturers and artisans.

We make every effort to ensure that product images, finishes, dimensions and specifications are accurate. However:

  • Colors and textures may vary slightly depending on your screen or device.
  • Natural materials (such as solid wood, stone, leather, metal, glass and fabrics) may present unique variations in grain, tone, veining, or texture.
  • Handcrafted or made-to-order pieces may show subtle differences from one item to another, which are part of their artisanal character and not considered defects.

All images and product visuals on lacantus.com are owned by LACANTUS or its suppliers and are used with authorization.
Any use, copying or reproduction without our express written permission is strictly prohibited and may lead to legal action.


Product Availability & Made-to-Order Items

Products displayed on lacantus.com reflect availability based on information provided by our suppliers and partners.

Some items may be:

  • In stock and ready to ship
  • Produced in small batches
  • Made-to-order or manufactured upon purchase

All orders are subject to final availability confirmation. After you place an order, our Order Department may:

  • Verify stock levels with the supplier
  • Confirm lead times for made-to-order items
  • Cancel or adjust the order if a product becomes unavailable or cannot be fulfilled as initially indicated

In such cases, you will be notified as soon as possible and offered an alternative or a refund.


Dimensions, Installation & Product Details

Each product page includes approximate dimensions, materials, finish information and, where applicable, assembly or installation requirements.

It is the customer’s responsibility to:

  • Verify that the product dimensions are suitable for the intended space (including doorways, elevators and staircases)
  • Ensure that any required installation (e.g. hard-wired lighting, wall mounting, special fixtures) is carried out by qualified professionals and complies with local regulations

We cannot be held responsible if a product cannot be delivered, installed or moved into the customer’s premises due to access limitations or measurement errors.


Prices, Currency & Taxes

All prices on lacantus.com, as well as payments and invoices, are displayed in USD (US dollars).

For orders shipped within the United States:

  • Applicable sales tax may be added at checkout where required by law.

For orders shipped to Canada or other countries (when available):

  • Duties, import taxes and customs fees may apply according to local regulations.
  • These charges, if applicable, are the responsibility of the customer and are not included in our product prices.

Payment Methods

We accept secure payment methods such as:

  • PayPal
  • Major credit and debit cards via our payment processors
  • Other methods clearly indicated at checkout

For security reasons, we may only ship orders to addresses that can be verified by the payment provider or that match billing information, or after additional verification.


Order Status, Processing & Separate Shipments

Orders are usually processed within the timeframes indicated in our Shipping Policy.

Because we work with multiple suppliers and warehouses:

  • Items from the same order may ship separately.
  • Each shipment will have its own tracking information.

You can follow your order using tracking emails or by contacting our support team.


Discounts, Promotions & Store Credit

From time to time, lacantus.com may offer promotions, discount codes or store credit:

  • Each promotion or code has specific conditions and a validity period.
  • Promotions cannot be extended or applied retroactively once they expire.
  • Some promotions may not be compatible with others or with certain product categories (for example, made-to-order or limited edition pieces).

Store credit or vouchers issued in lieu of refunds can generally be used once, within a defined timeframe, and only on lacantus.com, unless indicated otherwise.


Delivery, Shipping & Duties (Summary)

Shipping conditions for lacantus.com are described in detail in our Shipping Policy, but in summary:

  • We may offer free shipping within the United States on most items, with estimated delivery of 1–5 business days for in-stock products (longer for oversized or special shipments).
  • Shipping to Canada, where available, may involve additional transit time and customs processing.
  • Packages may be accompanied by commercial invoices or documentation showing the value of the goods, as required by customs authorities.
  • Duties, import taxes and brokerage fees (if applicable) are not included and are the responsibility of the customer.

Delays caused by carriers, customs, weather or other external factors are outside our control.


Return Conditions for Furniture, Lighting & Home Products (Summary)

Full rules are set out in our Return & Refund Policy, but in summary:

  • Only justified returns are accepted (damaged, defective, incorrect item, not as described, wrong quantity), within the applicable timeframe (generally 7 business days for furniture and décor, 14 business days for electronics or items requiring installation).
  • Items must be unassembled, uninstalled, unused and returned in their original packaging, including all parts, hardware, documentation and protective materials.
  • Customers must keep the packaging until the product has been fully inspected.
  • Clear photos or videos of the issue are required before any return authorization is issued.
  • Unauthorized returns, returns sent to the wrong address or without an RMA number may be refused and returned to the sender.

In extremely exceptional and justified cases, we may review other return situations at our sole discretion.
In such cases, only partial refunds may be granted, and restocking fees and return shipping costs will generally apply.
