5. Fragile and oversized item handling
Sculptures that are fragile, heavy, or oversized go through a manual shipping review before dispatch. This includes:
- Assessment of packaging requirements (bubble wrap, foam, wooden crate, or custom pallet).
- Selection of the right courier partner for the size, weight, and fragility.
- Insurance coverage for high-value or delicate pieces.
- Confirmation of delivery feasibility at your location (e.g., lift access, floor, open area for garden sculptures).
- A shipping quote shared with you before payment, where applicable.
You will be contacted if additional shipping confirmation or information is needed. For garden sculptures and large-format works, we may discuss placement requirements (base preparation, crane access, etc.) before dispatch.
6. Order tracking
Once your order is dispatched, you will receive:
- An email notification with the courier name and tracking number (AWB).
- A link to track your shipment on the courier's website.
- Updates on your order page if you have an account (for authenticated orders).
You can also track your order anytime using our Track Order page with your order number and email/phone.
7. Courier partners
We work with the following shipping partners:

8. Failed delivery and re-attempts
