  • Original Works: drawings, paintings, canvases → no right of withdrawal. This exclusion applies due to their unique nature and artistic value.

  • Limited Edition Prints, Lithographs, and Serigraphs: Prints, lithographs, or serigraphs signed and numbered by the artist are considered original works of art for the purposes of the right of withdrawal and are therefore not eligible for this right.

  • Standard Prints or Reproductions: Non-limited reproductions or prints benefit from a 14-day right of withdrawal from the date of receipt of the order, provided the product is returned intact and in its original packaging, at the buyer's expense.

  • Design Objects and Small Furniture: In-stock design objects and small furniture benefit from a 14-day right of withdrawal, provided they are returned intact and in their original packaging, at the buyer's expense.

Studio Cinquante informs its customers transparently before order validation: all original works and signed limited editions are excluded from the right of withdrawal, while design objects and standard prints benefit from the legal right of withdrawal.

8. Refund and Return

Original works and limited editions cannot be returned except in the case of an actual defect noted upon delivery (transport damage or undisclosed shipping error). Any defect must be reported within 48 hours by email with photos. For eligible products (standard prints/objects), returns must be made within 14 days, intact, at the buyer's expense. Refunds are processed within 7 to 10 business days after inspection.

9. Intellectual Property

The purchase of a work does not grant any right of reproduction, exploitation, or commercialization. All rights remain the property of the artist or the gallery.
