9. Color & Description Disclaimer :- The details of the products or product specifications (for instance weight, color, handwork details, size, etc.) quoted with the product displays are only approximate values. While every endeavor has been made to accurately reproduce colors, there may be minor variations in color of the actual product because of the nature of fabric dyes, weather at the time of dying and differences in display output due to lighting and digital photography and color settings and capabilities of monitors. A customer must place an order keeping in mind this minor variation in color as seen on a computer screen against the actual color of the outfit received. Bhartiya Gramotthan Sanstha firmly believes that all the customers who order online are aware that colors seen on a monitor will be slightly different as compared to the actual accessories ordered. It is practically impossible for Bhartiya Gramotthan Sanstha Designers to replicate the same colors on product as seen on your monitor. A variation in the shade selected by you is considered as a normal practice as these product have a tendency to reflect different shades of a color under different light and weather, type of camera used for photography or type and settings on the computer monitor. We wish to clarify and ascertain that every customer who orders any product from Bhartiya Gramotthan Sanstha.com is aware of this genuine problem.
10. While ordering on internet, we suggest that customers should be extra careful of following - :-
1)- Red, maroon and orange colors have a higher tendency to reflect a different shade than other colors. For example even if you yourself try to photograph from a digital camera or scan a red garment, in most of the cases it will show either as maroon or orange on the computer monitor and vice versa. Though imaging technology has advanced, still no foolproof solution to this problem is available at the moment.
2)- Many a time’s green and blue shades also overlap. Same is the case with off-white, white and cream colors.
3)- Sea Green color sometimes looks Aqua blue and the other way around.
4)- Some fabrics like raw silk, khadi silk, cotton silk, south cotton, brocade have a textured effect where we can see the weaving & threads are visible in different directions which is an inherent characteristic or feature of that fabric and proof of its authenticity. These are not defects. This raw finish is the beauty of these fabrics.
5)- Handcrafted, hand dyed, hand printed, hand painted, hand embroidered, handloom, hand weaved products will always have minor differences when we compare them as they are not made by machines. Each piece will be unique. Handicraft artisans always try their best to make each piece better than the previous one. So, the product will always have minor variation keeping the same theme constant in artistic manner. The raw finish of the handicrafts cannot be compared with machine finished products as this raw finish is the beauty of the handicrafts items.
