In order to lighten the following text, the term “you” will sometimes be used to designate the client and the term “we” will sometimes be used to designate d’Armes.

Estimates are based on information provided by the customer to d’Armes on the date of shipment. They are valid for 30 days. Any modification requested by the customer at a later date may lead to a revision of the rates at the discretion of d’Armes. Notably, but not exclusively: the type of lighting product, dimensions and finishes, quantities ordered, production times, address and type of delivery.

When the customer has indicated their intention to buy from d’Armes and communicated all or part of the information necessary for the production, we will send them an invoice.

The RA Suspension and RA Murale models have a cold cathode neon as the source of light, manufactured by hand in Montreal. The following characteristics are related to this technology and cannot be considered a defect:

• Additional wiring is required to make the lamp brightness variable.
• The transformer can emit a slight noise when the light is varied at a low intensity.
• The appearance and dimensions of the neon tube may vary slightly.
• A mixture of rare minerals is present in the glass tube to give the light its radiance and warmth. Very small stains may appear over time.
• The neon sign tubes used are designed to last for years, their lifetime can be reduced in case of impacts that create micro-cracks. D’Armes offers tube replacements, additional charges apply after the warranty period.
