Due to the impact of Covid-19 and Brexit on our postal and courier systems, deliveries are being affected. Whilst our galleries are making every effort to ensure your artworks are delivered promptly, please note some shipping times may vary.
What are the shipping costs?
Shipping costs are available to estimate on the product page, in your shopping bag, and at checkout. Please note that if you order from different galleries, the shipping price for each artwork will be added together and presented to you as a total amount as you proceed through the checkout process. You are responsible for these costs, which are calculated based on the shipping destination as well as the weight and size of your artwork.
Who is responsible for delivering my artwork?
We work with partner galleries who are responsible for shipping your artwork to you. Our partner galleries work with a range of couriers, selecting the service best suited to your artwork and shipping destination.
Why does the gallery need to confirm my order?
Once you’ve placed your order, the gallery has 7 days to confirm that the artwork is available. This is to ensure that you are not charged in full before the gallery confirms they have the artwork available. In most cases, this step proceeds quickly and the artwork is dispatched soon after confirmation.
Sometimes, there are cases where the order may be rejected or delayed. This may be because the artwork has been sold in the gallery or at an art fair a few days prior to your order; the artwork may be being exhibited at a fair; or the gallery may be unavailable due to a business trip, holidays, and so on. If this is the case, we will notify you and you will either be refunded or we will work with you to find a suitable alternative.
