Delivery & Returns

Delivery

  • You can read about the order and delivery process in our Terms & Conditions.
  • The cost of shipping is specified in the “Shipping” tab for each product, and is charged at a low flat rate (usually £5.95), and free on orders over £100. Shipping costs will be calculated in your basket and on the checkout page. However, please note that large, delicate orders, or orders to be shipped outside of the UK may incur additional shipping charge. Please contact us before placing your order at shop(at)chalkandmoss.com or via our contact form here for an accurate shipping cost, which will be applied so you can make your order.
  • Chalk & Moss works with individual designer/makers who make and send the products to you. All orders and liaison takes place with Chalk & Moss only.
  • We support the slow design movement, making quality over quantity. We want you to savour the anticipation of getting your products. Research shows that you’ll love your things all the more for the wait, and hopefully cherish them for longer! The products you buy from Chalk & Moss are sometimes carefully handmade just for you. The maximum lead time is included on each product page. This doesn’t mean you can’t get surprised with an early delivery!
  • If you would like to have something delivered outside the UK, we’ll be happy to arrange this for you! Just drop a line to shop(at)chalkandmoss.com or via our contact form here.
  • For orders to be shipped to North America, please note that you may be charged for local import duties and customs charges on the arrival of the goods in your country. This is out of our control and you are responsible for paying any such charges.
  • Products are sent either by standard post or courier, depending on value, size or weight. The shipping method varies depending on the products, but care is taken to ensure your order’s safety. Please refer to the individual product page for further details on lead times, particularly if the product is not in stock when the order has been placed, as most products are made to order for you.
  • Delivery and Returns conditions sometimes vary by designer (for example where Products are made to order), so check individual product pages for applicable conditions.
