Frequently Asked Questions
Orders / availability
“Add to cart” is used for works that are available to purchase in their current edition, size, or variation.
“Pre-order” is used for works that are made to order or require fabrication after purchase.
No. Some works are available now, while others are produced to order. Availability depends on the sculpture, material, edition status, and current production schedule.
Yes. If you would like to confirm details before placing an order, you are welcome to enquire first.
Editions
Many sculptures are released in limited editions. Edition size depends on the work, material, and series. If a sculpture is editioned, that information will normally be shown on the product page or can be confirmed on request.
All editioned sculptures have their edition number and signature engraved at the base. For prints and paintings, the edition number is written either on the front or back.
If an edition is sold out, that specific edition will not usually be repeated. In some cases, a sculpture may later appear in a different material, size, or variation as part of the broader practice.
Commissions
Yes. I accept selected commissions across stainless steel, crystal, bronze, marble, and granite, from collector-scale works to large public sculpture projects.

Yes. Many commissions begin with an existing sculpture that is then adapted in scale, finish, or material to suit a particular setting.
Yes. Bespoke commissions begin with a fresh brief and may involve sketches, design development, or 3D visualisations before production starts.
The best place to begin is the contact page. A short outline of your idea, location, material preference, approximate scale, and timing is usually enough for an initial conversation.
Production and lead times
Production time varies depending on the material, size, edition status, and complexity of the work. Smaller works may require a shorter lead time, while bespoke or large-scale projects take longer. Estimated timelines can be confirmed before production begins.
Different works use different processes depending on the material. These may include digital sculpting, prototyping, lost-wax casting, carving, fabrication, polishing, and hand-finishing.
Shipping and delivery
Yes. International shipping is available for selected works.
Shipping depends on the size, weight, destination, and packing requirements of the sculpture. Exact costs can be confirmed at checkout or on request, depending on the work.
No. The packaging is designed to protect the sculpture in transit and is not sold as part of the artwork itself. Minor wear, dents, marks, or damage to the outer box or packing materials can occur during shipping and are not considered defects or grounds for return, refund, or replacement, provided the sculpture arrives safely and in good condition.
Yes. Larger sculptures, architectural works, and public commissions may require custom crating, freight coordination, and installation planning.
Taxes and duties
No. Prices do not include import duties, taxes, customs charges, or local handling fees unless explicitly stated. These charges are the responsibility of the buyer and may be requested by the courier or customs authority before delivery is completed.

Please remember that small surface variations or subtle tool marks are normal and reflect the hand-crafted nature of the artwork, not defects.
