Informations on materials and shipping methods of Gufobardo creations


Every object I create is to be considered for Collections and not as a toy. Thus its suggested not to buy Dolls or Witches or Angels for children unless under your own responsibility: many parts are glued and painted with particulars that could be swallowed by children, watch out!

Every knitted or crocheted creation is made with yarns bought from the best Italian yarn suppliers, who guarantee for it. The washing and keeping methods of the cloths are included and Im always at your disposal for any suggestion and/or reparation in case you have problems with them (watch out, if the object has been clearly manumitted it wont be fixed, the shipping is paid by the addresser, read the section Complaints Warrantee Cancellation).

The fabrics are previously washed and are not subject to any change. Each material is commonly used and is not to be considered allergenic, yet, if you might have any particular sensibility to any material, please let me know it!

Each herbalist product is bought in herbalists shops that sell tested biological products: I put the origin of spices and tisanes together with the bill and Im at your disposal for any clarification about the materials used.

MATERIALS

The main material I use is cotton cloth (American, Italian, English) and vintage cloth found in antique trade markets, in some cases they have been made older. The decorative ribbons can be in velvet, satin voile or crochet. The mohair for hair comes form America and Europe. The wooden buttons are partially handmade and partially bought; the wood used is natural or colored with nontoxic aniline. The buttons realized with synthetic pastes (Fimo, Cernit) resist also to washing machine. All the essential oils that scents the Dolls or pot pourri put inside of some of them (lavender, chamomile, verbena, mallow, ferns, spices, karkade) are biologic. The spices that decorate the dolls are mainly star anise, cinnamon and cloves; meanwhile the barriers, the leaves, the woods, the dry grasses and the cortexes, the shells, the stones and the flowers are personally taken, as for recover materials (handles, bulbs, metal wires, etc). The copper wire is used to make the articulations of many dolls because, besides the decorative effect, it does not oxidize and does not rust. The bodies of my creations are stuffed with synthetic nonallergic wool.

The stones used in crystal therapy are bought and certified by www.manipura.it that can give you any indication about the properties, the uses and the history of each stone.

I also use terracotta and papier mache painted with acrylics and watercolors and fixed with final nontoxic varnish; meanwhile powders and rouges to retouch the color of the skin have been bought in perfume shops that guarantee that the products are not allergic.

The metal or brass bells of every dimension, the colored feathers, the glass pearls, the natural and colored Raffia, the synthetic fir and the fabric or plastic flowers, are sewed with cotton yarn or glued with nontoxic glues.

Since each product is not serially created, there could be differences from the pictures on the Gufobardo website: this is why a fabric could be used up or because a certain ribbon is in short supply or because the production of a certain material is over.

I will inform you about any change at the moment you buy the object, and we can agree on possible changes.

The drawing though, being my property, guarantees that the form, the dimensions and the final aspect are exactly like shown in the pictures.

If you have any particular request (color, material or anything else) I can make a quotation to personalize the creation, write me!

The entire handicraft production is based on my personal design protected by copyright and each product is signed and numbered. Violations to copyright are not allowed!

The purchase is to be considered subject to the Law n. 185 of 22/05/1999, according to which the buyer can recess from the contract. Purchases via internet, thus, are included in this case.
