Shipping & Return Policy
Last Updated: 11 October 2025
​
1 | Processing & Shipping
-
Please allow up to 7 business days for me to process your order.
-
You will receive an email with a tracking number once your order ships.
-
International orders typically arrive within 3–4 weeks, although customs, postal services, or unforeseen delays may cause a delay.​​
2 | Returns & Refunds (for Non-Commission Items, if applicable)
-
EU customers have 14 days from receipt to request a return (no reason needed).
-
After notifying me, you have 14 additional days to return the artwork.
-
Returns must be in their original condition and include all original packaging.
-
Return shipping is your responsibility, unless the artwork was defective, damaged, or incorrect; in such cases, I will cover the cost.
-
Once I receive and inspect the return, I’ll refund your payment using the original method.
-
Refunds will be processed within 7 business days after inspection.
​
3 | Commission / Custom Work
-
Commissioned / custom works are created according to your specifications (personalized).
-
Because they are bespoke, exchanges are not available for commission work.
-
The standard 14-day cooling-off period and right of return do not apply to custom works.
-
Returns or refunds for commission work are accepted only if the item is defective, damaged, or does not meet the agreed-upon specifications.
-
In such occasions, contact me with photos and a description within 7 days. I may repair, replace, or refund as appropriate, and in those cases, I will cover the return shipping costs.
​
5 | Tariffs, Duties & Customs Fees
-
All artworks are shipped from Germany.
-
Shipping, packaging, and insurance are included in the price.
-
The buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes, or customs fees that may be charged in their country.
-
Many countries exempt original artworks from import duties; however, buyers should confirm local VAT or tax regulations before making a purchase.
-
Each shipment is accurately classified as original art (not a reproduction) and includes clear documentation to support its status for customs clearance.
​

6 | Additional Terms & Notes
-
When returning artwork, please use a trackable, insured shipping method. I cannot be responsible for packages lost in transit.
-
I may update this policy periodically; any changes will apply only to new orders.
-
This policy is in addition to your statutory rights under applicable laws, such as EU rules governing defects or consumer protection.
