Do you ship framed and glazed works?
Shipping & Collection · Revised 3 August 2026
Yes, although for long-distance transport we generally recommend removing glass and shipping the work unframed with the frame separately, or substituting an acrylic glazing. The safest arrangement for the particular object is advised on request.
