Shipping policy
Updated: 4 July 2026
We offer tracked shipping across the UK and to selected international destinations. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on parcel size, weight, value and destination.
Delivery times shown at checkout are estimated delivery times provided by the courier or postal service. These may vary depending on parcel size, destination, customs processing and seasonal delays.
The delivery estimates in this policy are intended as a general guide. If there is any difference between the checkout estimate and the policy wording, the checkout estimate should be treated as the current service estimate for that order.

Local Collection / Antique Fair Pickup
We offer free pre-arranged collection from selected UK antique fairs, including Malvern, Kempton, Newark and Shepton.
- To arrange this, please choose standard shipping at checkout and write “Pickup at [Fair Name]” in the order notes. We will then refund the shipping cost and confirm a collection time with you.
- Collection must be arranged in advance. We are unable to accommodate drop-in collection.
Heavy or Oversized Orders Over 30kg
Orders weighing more than 30kg are not eligible for automatic checkout shipping rates.
- If your basket exceeds this weight, please contact us via the contact form for a custom shipping quote. We will calculate the most cost-effective and reliable courier service based on your location and item details. Once confirmed, we will send you a custom checkout link or invoice.
Packaging & Handling
All items are packed carefully using recyclable and protective materials wherever possible. Vintage and antique items are often fragile, so we use appropriate padding and double-boxing when needed.
Processing Time
Orders are usually dispatched within 1-2 working days. Larger, heavier or more delicate items may take slightly longer to prepare. We will always let you know if there is a delay.
Delivery Issues
If an item arrives damaged or goes missing in transit, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery.
All items are sent using tracked services and insured where applicable. Please keep all packaging and take photographs of any damage, as this may be required for a courier or insurance claim.
