About Shipping and Returns

We undertake to package all of our goods with the utmost care to ensure that no damage occurs during transit.

All our framed images are sent by courier.

Almost all our prints are sent by courier in reinforced tubes with an 11 cm diameter so they don't get bent.  You can also request that we send them by the postal service to a Post Office.

How will my frame be packaged?

Our frames are securely packaged in cardboard boxes with packing material to prevent shaking of the frame and any other damage during shipping.

How will my print be packaged?

All our unframed prints are rolled and shipped in reinforced tubes that have been specifically designed for the purpose of shipping paper art.

How will my order be shipped?

Framed Images will be delivered by our couriers, Business Express (BEX) utilising their Normal Cargo service for our South African clients. That means that your frame will be delivered to you the day after shipping.

For neighbouring countries, we utilise BEX's International Express Road Freight service with typical transit times of 2 to 3 days.
