For England, Wales and some parts of Scotland we offer free shipping on all items. We work closely with a professional antiques courier that has many years of experience handling antique furniture. We ensure they the important details about each item before they transport it, and can promise that they always provide an excellent service.
If you’re worried about receiving your furniture and setting it down without damage your end, we also offer a two man delivery service. This guarantees its protection from the moment it leaves us, right up until is it proudly in its place at home.
For our global customers, we offer a secure and insured air & sea freight shipping service. The greatest care must be taken when transporting antiques long distance, so we use a trusted company who have been delivering our antiques safely for many years. Please contact us for a shipping quote.
Of course you can organise your own courier service if that suits you better, though we must emphasise that we can not take any responsibility for the item once it leaves our premises. If you wish to take this option, please let us know at the time of purchase.
Alternatively, you are more than welcome to come and collect your purchase in person. We love to see our antiques leave us in the safe hands of their new owners, though again we must mention that you will be taking responsibility for any ensued damage once it leaves our premises.
If for some unlikely reason you are not happy with your purchase, we offer a full refund policy. We only ask that you inform us by telephone or email within 48 hours of receiving your package, if you wish to return it. We will then arrange a courier to come and collect it, the cost of which will be deducted from your refund. The furniture must arrive back to us in the same condition that it left us. We deem this to be an unlikely situation though and anticipate that you will be as delighted with your purchase as we are in seeing it safely sent to a new home. Then, you can sit back and enjoy it.
