Shipping Policy
Shipping Policy
At TRADE the MARK, every piece is handmade with care — and we take the same care in getting it safely to you. Please read below for everything you need to know about processing times, packaging, and delivery.
Processing & Make Time
Because our ceramics are handmade, many pieces require time to create, fire, and finish before they are ready to ship. Please allow:
- Ready-to-ship items: Dispatched within 2–4 business days of your order.
- Made-to-order pieces: Please allow 4–6 weeks depending on the piece.
If you need an item by a specific date, please get in touch before placing your order and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
Packaging & Protection
Ceramics are fragile, and we treat every order as if it were our own. Each piece is:
- Individually wrapped in honeycomb protective paper or bubble wrap
- Packed securely in a sturdy outer box with additional compostable peanut cushioning.
- Checked before sealing to ensure nothing shifts in transit
We use packaging that is as minimal and recyclable as possible, without compromising on protection.
