Terms & conditions

These Terms & Conditions set out the rules that apply to the use of this website, showroom purchases, remote enquiries, appointments and services provided by Paysages d’Orient.

1. Company information

Paysages d’Orient is a Persian rug gallery based in Brussels, Belgium. The gallery offers authentic hand-knotted Persian rugs, showroom visits, online enquiries, rug-related advice and related services. The company details, including the legal business name, registered address, VAT or company number and contact information, are provided on the website or may be requested by contacting us.

2. Scope of these terms

These Terms & Conditions apply to the use of the Paysages d’Orient website, to enquiries submitted through the website, to appointments booked online, to showroom visits, to purchases made directly with Paysages d’Orient and to related rug services, unless otherwise agreed in writing. By using this website, submitting an enquiry, booking an appointment or confirming a purchase, the client acknowledges having read and accepted these Terms & Conditions.

3. Products & unique pieces

The rugs offered by Paysages d’Orient are hand-knotted pieces selected for their craftsmanship, origin, materials and artistic value. Each rug is unique and available in one single example, unless expressly stated otherwise. Product descriptions, photographs, dimensions and other information are provided with care. However, slight variations in colour, texture, dimensions, fringes, pile direction and appearance may occur due to the artisanal nature of the rugs and the way they are viewed.

4. Colour perception and images

The colours of a rug may appear lighter or darker depending on the angle, the direction of the pile, the lighting conditions and the position from which the rug is viewed. This natural visual effect is part of the character of hand-knotted rugs and does not constitute a defect.

Photographs on the website are intended to represent the rugs as accurately as possible. However, colours may also vary depending on the screen, device or display settings used by the client. For a more accurate appreciation of colours, texture and light reflection, we recommend booking a private showroom visit or video consultation.

5. Prices

Prices are displayed in euros. Unless stated otherwise, prices include applicable taxes where required by law. Paysages d’Orient makes every effort to ensure that prices, product information and availability are accurate. In the event of an obvious error, technical issue or incorrect information, Paysages d’Orient reserves the right to correct the information and, where necessary, cancel or refuse a reservation, purchase or request.

6. Enquiries, reservations and purchases

The website presents selected rugs and services offered by Paysages d’Orient. Products shown on the website are not sold through an online checkout. Clients may contact the gallery, request information, book a private viewing or arrange a showroom visit before confirming a purchase.
A rug may be reserved only after confirmation by Paysages d’Orient. Any reservation, purchase or home presentation remains subject to availability, prior agreement and any specific conditions communicated by the gallery.

7. Payment

Payments are arranged directly with Paysages d’Orient according to the nature of the purchase, the value of the rug and the agreed delivery or pickup method. Available payment methods may vary and will be communicated before final confirmation. Paysages d’Orient does not request or store full payment card details through this website.

8. Showroom visits, appointments and trials

Clients are welcome to visit the Brussels gallery or book a private appointment to view selected pieces in person or by video call. Whenever possible in Belgium, Paysages d’Orient may offer clients the opportunity to view or try a rug in their own interior before final confirmation. Any appointment, showroom trial, reservation or home presentation remains subject to availability and prior agreement.

9. Delivery & pick-up

Delivery or showroom pickup may be arranged depending on the size, value and destination of the rug. Delivery costs, delivery times and transport methods may vary depending on the selected piece and the level of care required. Clients are encouraged to contact Paysages d’Orient before confirming a purchase if they have specific delivery requirements.

10. Returns & exchanges

Return and exchange requests are handled in accordance with applicable consumer protection rules and the conditions set out on the Returns & exchanges page. As purchases are not completed through an online checkout, the applicable return conditions may depend on the circumstances of the sale, the place of purchase and the agreement made with the client. Any returned rug must be unused, clean, undamaged and returned in its original condition.

11. Legal guarantee

Consumers benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity applicable under Belgian and European consumer protection rules. This guarantee applies when a product is defective or does not correspond to what was agreed at the time of purchase.

The legal guarantee does not cover damage caused by normal use, improper handling, stains, odours, unsuitable cleaning, exposure to inappropriate conditions, or changes linked to the natural and artisanal character of the rug.

12. Care and maintenance

Hand-knotted rugs require appropriate care. Clients are encouraged to avoid harsh cleaning products, excessive moisture, prolonged direct sunlight and improper storage. Professional cleaning may be recommended depending on the material, age and condition of the rug. Paysages d’Orient may provide guidance or recommend suitable care solutions upon request.
