9.4. Please note: LLADRÓ products are handcrafted and every piece is unique and unrepeatable, so each of them may show small differences from the rest of the pieces in the series. The pictures of the pieces may also vary slightly from the original models. None of these variations or differences constitute a manufacturing defect. Quite the opposite: this adds value to each piece.

 

 

10. Lladró Assurance Program (“LAP”)

10.1. In addition to the above warranty, all purchases of LLADRÓ® brand products made through this website come with free insurance coverage against breakage and damage. This insurance does not cover any creations in the lighting category (chandeliers, ceiling, table, floor and wall lamps) and Light & Scent products (lithophanes and dome - with candles or LEDs - lights, wireless lamps and home fragrances in all formats: candles, diffusers and refills).

 

10.2. If you register as a Lladró Assurance Program (“LAP”) user, your piece will be insured free of charge and if it is damaged within twelve months of the purchase date, LLADRÓ will replace it with an identical piece as long as that piece is still in our catalog.

 

10.3. After the first year from the purchase date, the insurance policy will continue to cover your piece at 33% of the value of the piece, so if it breaks or is damaged you can replace it with a 33% discount on the recommended retail price at the time. The same 33% discount will apply to pieces acquired using LAP insurance.

 

10.4. If the insured piece is no longer in our catalog or is out of stock, you may choose or purchase another, as the case may be, at a price equal to or lower than that of the insured piece. No compensation shall be made, cash or otherwise, for the difference in price between the insured piece and the piece subsequently purchased using the LAP insurance, if the price is lower for the latter.

 

10.5. To use the insurance policy, contact our Customer Service Department. For the insurance to be effective, as you will be informed, you must provide LLADRÓ with the damaged piece and we may ask you to provide us with photo ID to verify that your data matches that of the policyholder. Furthermore, the “Lladró” logo on the base of the piece must be intact to show that it is authentic.

 

10.6. The cost of returning the damaged piece and shipping the new piece shall be borne by the policyholder.
