Lifetime Guarantee — FAQ
Do finishes/coatings fall under the guarantee?
Cosmetic wear (patina, minor scratches, finish lightening) is normal and not considered a defect. Structural failures are covered.
What if I received a gift?
You’re covered. Provide any proof of purchase you can (gift receipt, the purchaser’s name/email, or approximate timing + where it was bought).
Can I get a different color or upgrade?
Replacements match the original as closely as possible. If you’d like to upgrade or change color, we’ll share options (price differences may apply).
Do I need to send the product back?
Sometimes. For certain issues we may request a return for inspection; other times photos are sufficient. We’ll let you know after review.
Is normal prayer use “covered”?
Yes. Our guarantee is built around daily use in normal conditions. Abuse/misuse isn’t covered.
