IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR USA SHIPMENTS πΊπΈ
Temporarily Pausing Shipments to the USA
SHIPPING UPDATE FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS
As of August 29th 2025, the U.S. government has removed the De Minimis exemption of $800 on goods entering the country. This means that all shipments to the United States, no matter the value, may now be subject to additional import taxes and fees upon arrival.
These charges can be unexpectedly high, and the last thing I want is for my customers to be met with surprise costs upon delivery. If a parcel is refused, I not only lose the originally-paid shipping fee & packaging costs, but I am also charged to have the parcel returned to me. Being a solo artist and small business, these are expenses I unfortunately cannot afford to absorb - As a result of this and the uncertainties with U.S. shipping, I have had to make the difficult decision to temporarily pause shipping to the United States.
I am so grateful for my American art collectors and I deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Please know that this pause is temporary. I will be continuing to monitor the situation closely, and will revisit this decision as things change.
Thank you so much for your understanding and continued support.
