International (outside UK), shipping is generally via Royal Mail International Standard. This service is untracked to reduce the cost to our customers. Tracking can be included at an additional cost. Please contact us to arrange this prior to ordering. Larger/heavier/valuable items will have additional shipping costs to cover insurance and tracking.

Custom Order Time-scales:
I love custom orders! If you can’t see the perfect design for you or a loved one then please get in touch and I would love to work with you to create your own unique piece.
We always aim to have custom designs made and shipped as quickly as our listed pieces, although this is not always possible due to the increased time required to ensure the design is exactly as you want it prior to creating it. You will always be advised of the current timing for personalised items at the time of ordering. At busy times of the year (Christmas, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, etc.) I only have space for a limited number of custom orders so do get in touch early.
Copper Care:
If your purchase is made from solid copper. It has been cut, etched, stamped, textured, filed and polished by hand to create the finished design.
To give the item it’s rustic look, it may have been aged using a patina which darkens the piece and highlights the design etched/stamped into the copper. This patina has then been protected with a coat of renaissance wax to help preserve it.
Copper will naturally darken over time, and indeed patina naturally occurs with the ageing process. This process enhances the rich colour of the copper and it should not be cleaned with chemicals or abrasives. The natural handling of the piece and light buffing with a soft, dry cloth should be all that is needed to care for your item.
The only cleaning/protective product we recommend using on your copper design is renaissance wax. Of course, being solid metal, your design can be professionally stripped back to clean metal and fresh patina applied to return it to ‘as new’ condition, although it is the aged, rich, rustic appearance than is most appealing about this metal.
