The information on this website is provided for general product, brand, and customer information purposes only. We make reasonable efforts to keep the information accurate and up to date, but we do not guarantee that all information is complete, current, error-free, or suitable for every customer’s individual situation.

2. No Professional Advice

Nothing on this website should be understood as legal, financial, tax, construction, installation, safety, medical, or professional advice.

Any information relating to product use, installation, materials, care, shipping, customs, or business matters is provided for general guidance only. Customers are responsible for making their own decisions and, where necessary, seeking advice from a qualified professional.

3. Product Descriptions and Images

We aim to describe and photograph our products as accurately as possible. However, product images, colors, dimensions, textures, and finishes may appear slightly different depending on screen settings, lighting, photography, natural material differences, and production batches.

Many MINAMI Brands products are handmade or made from natural materials such as wood. Natural grain, color tone, knots, small marks, texture differences, engraving variations, cutting marks, and minor handmade variations may occur. These characteristics are part of the natural and handcrafted appearance of the product and are not automatically considered defects.

4. Handmade and Natural-Material Products

Wood and other natural materials can react to humidity, temperature, sunlight, moisture, and handling. Unless specifically stated otherwise, MINAMI Brands products are intended for indoor decorative use.

Customers should avoid exposing products to excessive moisture, direct rain, strong sunlight, high heat, fire, heavy impact, unsuitable outdoor conditions, or unstable surfaces.

MINAMI Brands is not responsible for damage caused by misuse, incorrect installation, unsuitable placement, modification, neglect, improper storage, or failure to follow product care instructions.

5. Installation and Use

Customers are responsible for ensuring that any wall, surface, screw, nail, hook, mounting point, or installation method is suitable for the product being installed.

Before hanging or mounting any product, customers should check the wall material, product weight, fixing method, and surrounding environment. If unsure, customers should consult a qualified installer or professional.

MINAMI Brands is not responsible for damage to walls, surfaces, furniture, property, or persons caused by incorrect installation, unsuitable mounting hardware, falling items, improper use, or unsafe placement.

We reserve the right to update, correct, change, or remove website content, product information, prices, images, availability, and descriptions at any time without prior notice.

Errors may occasionally occur, including pricing mistakes, stock errors, typographical mistakes, or incorrect product information. If such an error affects an order, we reserve the right to contact the customer, correct the issue, cancel the order, or issue a refund where appropriate.
