What To Expect:

Q: What happens after I order?
A: All orders receive an email follow-up to provide confirmation of delivery timeline and answer any further questions you may have regarding your purchase, payment or delivery. We will confirm at this point how your order will be delivered (usually as per the above method based on value and fragility).

Q: Can you notify me when you’re on your way to deliver?
A: If your order is being delivered by DPD they will send you a text message when they have collected from us to advise you of your delivery date.
On the day of delivery they will send you another text message in the morning with a one hour timed window within which your delivery should arrive.
This will also offer you the option to track or amend your delivery should you wish.

If your order is being delivered by our own white glove service, Customer Service team will contact you in advance to confirm your delivery date. They will then send you a text message the evening before your delivery date specifying a four hour window within which your order should arrive.

Q: How will I know when my order is ready to collect from the gallery?
A: A collection notification will be sent to you to advise that the artwork is in situ or due to be the next working day. We ask that you contact the collecting gallery to confirm that the piece will be ready for collection.

Q: Will you install my art?
A: If you require assistance installing fixings or your art, our galleries each have a list of trusted installers who can help you facilitate this.
Please advise our team prior to delivery if this is required.

If you require assistance installing fixings or your art, our galleries each have a list of trusted installers who can help you with this. If your art is not ready to hang, we will leave it wrapped ready for you or your installer to hang yourselves at a later point.

Q: Will your delivery team remove any packaging?
A: If your order is delivered by our own white glove service then we are happy to remove the packaging and take it with us. Please advise our team prior to delivery if this is required.

Q: I have ordered multiple items, will they be delivered together?
A: We will use best endeavours to combine multiple items in one delivery. They may be boxed individually depending on size or the amount of protection required.

Q: How will I receive my certificate of authenticity?
A: Most of our limited edition and some of our original pieces have a certificate of authenticity and if a certificate exists, you will receive this with your order.

Q: Access:

A: Please contact us prior to delivery to discuss any potential access issues either inside or outside your property.

Q: Delivery to remote areas:
