Order Processing
The majority of our products are individually handmade and made to order. Your order will be processed within 3-5 business days (excluding weekends, public holidays and shipping times) after receiving your order confirmation. Please allow an additional 2-3 business days for the preparation of large orders or during busy periods and sales. Note that even when selecting the express delivery option, we still require 3-5 business days to process your order before it is shipped.
If you place your order during our studio closure periods, such as Christmas or other holiday breaks, your order will be processed after the reopening date announced on our website and social media. During the reopening period, please allow extra time for us to process your order as we may have many outstanding orders to fulfill.
