Delivery Information

DISPLAYED LEAD TIMES

As a small design brand, we largely work to a pre-order model to ensure our footprint is as light as possible when it comes to our manufacturing, warehousing and shipping. Delivery lead times are communicated beneath each individual design. Delivery lead times displayed on each product page display the classification of each product; In Stock, Order Now or Made to Order. 

    • In Stock - Designs are in stock at our warehouse and available to be dispatched to delivery partners.

    • Pre-Order / Order Now - Designs are available on an incoming shipment arriving within the delivery window displayed on the products page.

    • Made To Order - This design is made especially for you. Terms and conditions therefore do apply.

The lead times displayed online are dynamic and are updated daily. This means the delivery lead times are only allocated once your order is placed, we do recommend you consider making your purchase as soon as possible to avoid delays. As designs very often sell out prior to arriving into our Sydney warehouse, we do recommend you consider making your purchase as soon as possible to avoid delays. 

Any delivery date or date range provided to you is an estimate only. We will use reasonable endeavours to meet the estimated delivery date, however products may be delivered within a reasonable period of that date. In these circumstances, and subject to our obligations under the law (including those described below), we will not be liable for any loss or damage, however it arises, if the products are delivered within a reasonable time after the estimated delivery date.
