By accessing or using this Site, you agree to these Terms.

Terms of Use

  • 1.1 Permitted Use

    You may use the Site only for lawful purposes and for personal, non-commercial viewing. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, publish, create derivative works, publicly display, scrape, mirror, or exploit any Site content without prior written permission from Vestali.

    1.2 Accuracy + Availability

    We strive for accuracy, but the Site and content may be updated, corrected, or removed at any time without notice. The Site is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind.

    1.3 Third-Party Links

    The Site may contain links to third parties (including FDP). Vestali is not responsible for third-party sites, policies, or practices.

  • 2.1 Authorized Acquisition Channels

    At present, Vestali works are made available for acquisition primarily through Fairfax Dorn Projects (“FDP”), an authorized sales partner. Any purchase, deposit, invoice, payment processing, taxes, and shipping arrangements may be handled through FDP under FDP’s transactional terms in addition to these Vestali terms.

    Future direct sales: Vestali may offer direct purchase options in the future. If and when Vestali sells directly, these Sales Terms apply to Vestali transactions as well.

    2.2 Made-to-Order, Limited Edition, and Bespoke Works

    Vestali works are made to order, limited edition, and/or bespoke commissioned works produced through specialized fabrication and heritage craft processes.

    Because natural materials and hand processes are central to the work, variations are inherent and expected, including but not limited to:

    • patina, oxidation, tonal shifts

    • inclusions and optical variation in quartz and gemstones

    • surface marks consistent with hand-finishing

    • stone porosity and mineral variation
      These are not defects.

    2.3 Final Sale — No Returns, No Exchanges

    ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NO RETURNS. NO EXCHANGES.
    Due to made-to-order production and the nature of limited and commissioned works, we cannot accept returns or exchanges for any reason, including preference, interpretation, minor variation, natural material characteristics, or environmental response (e.g., patina).

    2.4 Deposits, Production, and Cancellations

    Unless otherwise stated in writing on the invoice:

    • Deposits (if applicable) are non-refundable.

    • Once production begins, orders cannot be canceled.

    • If cancellation is permitted in writing prior to production start, administrative, design, and/or sourcing fees may apply.

    2.5 Lead Times

    Lead times are estimates and may change due to artisan scheduling, material availability, engineering/fabrication requirements, or site-specific constraints. Delays do not constitute grounds for cancellation, refund, or chargeback.

    2.6 Shipping, Delivery, Risk of Loss

    Shipping and white-glove delivery may be arranged through FDP and/or third-party carriers. Risk of loss and title transfer are governed by the invoice and delivery terms issued by the selling entity (FDP or Vestali). Buyers must inspect packaging and contents upon delivery and report visible shipping damage immediately to the carrier and the seller (FDP or Vestali), within the timeframe required by the carrier.

  • Vestali works are functional sculptures and contemplative instruments. They are not medical devices and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Any reference to “alignment,” “coherence,” “activation,” “energy,” or similar language describes design intent and experiential use—not clinical outcomes.

  • 5.1 Light and Sunlight Caution (Quartz)

    Quartz spheres and precision-cut crystals can concentrate sunlight, potentially creating localized hot spots. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight on quartz elements near flammable materials (textiles, paper, dried botanicals, etc.). Use indirect or diffused light.

    5.2 Fragile and Sharp Elements

    Some components (including precision-cut crystal points) may be sharp and fragile. Handle with care, use two hands, and keep away from children and unstable surfaces.

    5.3 Fire, Smoke, Oils, and Liquids

    If your practice uses flame, smoke, resins, herbs, oils, or liquids: use appropriate holders and vessels and follow all local fire safety guidelines. Vestali is not responsible for damage or injury arising from improper handling, placement, or environmental exposure.

  • 6.1 Warranty Disclaimer

    Except as expressly stated in writing by the seller (FDP or Vestali) in an invoice or certificate, Vestali provides the Site and works without warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

    Natural wear and environmental response—including patina, oxidation, micro-scratches, and stone variation—are not defects.

    6.2 Limitation of Liability

Vestali’s total liability for any claim related to the Site or a work will not exceed the amount paid for the work to the seller, or the minimum amount required by law, whichever is greater.
