Shipping policy
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
All orders are processed and prepared with extreme care. As our inventory consists of original fine art paintings and premium handcrafted goods (such as silk scarves, textiles, and accessories), original artworks require official export documentation from the Ministry of Culture of Georgia and a signed Certificate of Authenticity prior to dispatch.
Due to specialized art-grade packaging and official export certification procedures, our order processing time is 3 to 7 business days before shipment.
To avoid any delivery delays, please ensure that your shipping address and contact details are fully accurate. In the event of any unforeseen delay, you will be notified immediately. Please note that transit times may be slightly extended during weekends, public holidays, or peak seasons.
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on the destination and selected shipping method. For your complete peace of mind, all international shipments are fully covered by transit insurance for their declared value.
