Are There Any Color Differences Between the Online Product Photos and the Item I Will Receive?

1. Introduction
At Home & Kids Co., we strive to showcase our products as accurately as possible. However, some color variances are normal and may occur between what you see online and what you receive in person. This article explains the main reasons why such differences can happen.

2. Lighting & Photography

  • Studio Lighting – Our product photos are often taken under bright studio lighting to highlight details. While this helps show texture and design, it can sometimes alter how the color appears in photos.
  • Location & Angle – Colors can look different based on the angle of the photo, the time of day, and whether the image was taken indoors or outdoors.

3. Screen Settings & Device Variations

  • Monitor Calibration – Each digital device—whether it’s a smartphone, tablet, or computer—has its own brightness and color settings. This can lead to slight variations in how colors appear.
  • Software Filters – Some devices or apps also apply filters or night-mode settings, further affecting the displayed colors.

4. Natural Variations in Materials

  • Wood Grain – Many of our items are made with real wood, which naturally varies in grain pattern and tone. You might see slight differences in the color or texture of the wood pieces you receive.
  • Fabric Batches – If you’re purchasing upholstered items, the exact dye lot for each fabric batch can result in minor color differences.

5. Our Commitment to Quality
We take pride in carefully selecting materials and capturing product photos that are true to life. Still, slight color variations are a normal part of purchasing any natural or hand-finished product.

6. What to Do If You’re Unsure

  1. Request Additional Info – If you need more clarity on a product’s color, our Customer Care team can provide extra images or details before you make a purchase.
  2. Ask for Expert Advice – We’re happy to share tips on color coordination or recommend other products that match your décor.
