Q: How long does it take for the order to be delivered after I place my order?

While most orders are processed and dispatched within 10 days of receipt of payment, please provide up to 2-4 weeks for processing your order. Because most items are handcrafted with extreme care using traditional techniques, they may occasionally be in short supply. We will inform you immediately just in case we require more time for a particular item.

The total delivery time will depend on the following –

  1.      Processing time– The time we take to process an order will vary depending on your Design & Quantity  On an average the processing time for small quantity is 7-10 days.  We will notify you via email about the approximate processing time.
  2.      Shipping time – The shipping time will depend on the shipping option that you choose. Standard free shipping – The standard shipping time is around 8-10 business days. Express shipping – Express shipping time is around 4-5 business days.

Note: Please note that the express shipping option only expedites the shipping time. Also sometimes a product might be out of stock and will need some time to recreate. If you have any urgent requirement regarding getting a product before a certain date, then please either contact us before placing the order or notify us immediately after placing the order and let us know the date by which you must have the product and we’ll let you know if the products can be delivered by that date.
