Online Shopping for Textiles 

Textiles may appear differently on screen than they do in real life. This may be caused by your screen settings or the settings that were used in the production of the original image. Colours and textures of textiles may appear differently on screen compared to real life due to variations in screen settings and photography lighting. 

Please be aware of this and take it into account when you are reviewing your order.
