Terms of Use

These terms govern how you may browse and use the Ongeto Living directory. They outline what we do, what we expect from you, and where our responsibility ends. Please read them before relying on any listing or maker profile.

1. What the directory offers

Ongeto Living is a curated directory of home decor objects, functional furniture and everyday items made by independent workshops, flea market sellers and design studios in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban. Each listing is prepared by our editorial team after a visit or direct conversation with the maker.

We describe materials, craft context, indicative price ranges and care advice to the best of our knowledge at the time of publication. Catalogues are updated seasonally, and a piece may sell out or change between updates.

2. Accuracy of listings

We work to keep every entry accurate, but we do not guarantee that descriptions, prices or availability are current at the moment you read them. Makers set their own prices and may adjust them without notice.

Where we mention a price range, it is indicative and based on what the maker quoted during our last conversation. You should confirm the final price directly with the seller before committing to a purchase.

3. Your responsibility as a buyer

Listings are editorial references, not offers for sale. We do not process payments, handle shipping or mediate transactions between you and any maker or seller.

Before buying, we encourage you to ask the seller about materials, dimensions, lead time and return policy. Handmade pieces vary slightly from one another, and that variation is part of their character. If you require a perfect match or industrial consistency, a handmade object may not suit your needs.

4. Intellectual property

The text, photographs and layout on this site belong to Ongeto Living or to the makers who have granted us permission to show their work. You may not reproduce, redistribute or commercially use our content without written consent.

Maker names, studio marks and product designs remain the property of their respective creators. Our mention of a maker does not transfer any rights to you.

5. Limitation of liability

Ongeto Living provides the directory on an "as is" basis. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free or free of omissions. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the directory or from a transaction you conduct with a third-party seller.

We are an independent editorial resource and do not act as an agent, broker or guarantor for any maker featured on the site.

6. Termination of use

We may restrict or terminate your access to the site if you misuse it, attempt to disrupt its operation, scrape content at scale, or violate these terms. You may stop using the site at any time; no notice is required.

If we suspend access, sections that apply by their nature, such as limitation of liability and intellectual property, will survive that suspension.

7. Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms from time to time to reflect changes in how the directory operates or to comply with legal requirements. The current version will always be available on this page, and the date of the latest revision is shown below.

Continued use of the site after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms. If you do not agree with a revision, you should stop using the directory.
