Shipping & Returns



Last updated: 15 October 2026

1. Shipping from Athens
All works are shipped from Athens, Greece.

Each piece is packed with care, taking into account its size, weight, fragility and specific packaging requirements.

Shipping costs and available delivery options depend on the destination and the nature of the order.

2. Shipping Costs
The applicable shipping charge will be displayed at checkout where available. If a piece requires special handling or an individual shipping arrangement, we will contact you with a quote before confirming the order.

Our standard shipping charges may include:

  • Small objects: €60 worldwide shipping.

  • Medium objects weighing up to 6 kg: €150 worldwide shipping.

  • Large, heavy, fragile or custom orders: individually quoted before the order is confirmed.


These charges may be reviewed as shipping rates and packaging requirements change. Where an individual quote is needed, no additional shipping amount will be charged without informing you first.

For multiple-item orders, the shipping cost may need to be calculated individually, depending on whether the pieces can be safely packed and shipped together.

3. Processing and Delivery Times
Orders are prepared for dispatch after payment has been confirmed.

Delivery times vary according to the destination, courier service and any applicable customs procedures. Any delivery estimate provided is indicative rather than guaranteed.

Made-to-order or customised pieces may require additional production time. Where relevant, we will communicate the expected timeframe before confirming your order.


4. International Orders and Customs
International shipments may be subject to import duties, taxes, customs clearance fees or other charges imposed by the destination country.

Unless expressly stated otherwise at checkout, these charges are the responsibility of the customer.

Customs processing may also cause delays beyond our control.


5. Delivery Information
Please ensure that your name, delivery address, telephone number and email address are accurate when placing an order.

If a parcel cannot be delivered because the information supplied is incorrect or incomplete, additional delivery or return costs may arise.

If your parcel arrives visibly damaged, please photograph the packaging and the item before discarding any materials, and contact us as soon as possible.


6. Right to Withdraw and Returns
Where the statutory right of withdrawal applies, consumers purchasing online generally have 14 days from receiving their goods to notify us that they wish to withdraw from the purchase, subject to applicable legal conditions and exceptions.

To request a return, contact us at [Insert contact email], including your order number and the item you wish to return.

Please wait for return instructions before sending anything back.

Unless otherwise required by law, returned goods should be securely packaged and sent back in a condition consistent with the applicable withdrawal rules. The customer may be responsible for the direct cost of returning goods where the law permits this and the required information has been provided.

Refunds will be handled within the applicable legal timeframe and through the original payment method where possible.


7. Custom and Personalised Pieces
The statutory right of withdrawal may not apply to goods made to the customer's specifications or clearly personalised, where the relevant legal exception applies.

This does not affect any mandatory rights relating to faulty, damaged or non-conforming goods.


8. Damaged, Faulty or Incorrect Orders
If an item arrives damaged, faulty or different from what you ordered, please contact us at [Insert contact email] with your order number and, where possible, photographs of the issue.

We will review the matter and explain the appropriate next steps.

Your statutory consumer rights remain unaffected.


9. Exchanges
Exchanges are subject to product availability and applicable consumer law. Please contact us before returning an item to discuss the available options.
