Craft Design House may not be able to fulfil obligations if the product ordered is not available due to stock levels. There may have been problems processing payments or with product or price information featured and therefore Craft Design House reserves the right to refuse an order at any time.

Purchasing Handcrafted or Designed Work

Please be aware that each item on our website is not mass produced and an original piece handcrafted or designed by our partners. This will mean that each piece differs slightly in form, shape, design or illustration or some designer makers will have a range of their work in stock others will require more time.

Product Pricing & Description

All prices published are set directly by our designer makers and are in pounds sterling. Buyers have the option of selecting a currency conversion option to view prices in Euro, American Dollar, and Australian Dollars.
Please note each item purchased is handcrafted or designed by our partner designer makers. Each product purchased is original and is sold subject to its Product Description.

Commissioned Items

Many of our designer makers take commissions through our SOURCE platform. You will be able to discuss your needs, prepare a brief and design a bespoke piece via our Design Consultancy. A non-refundable deposit is payable at the beginning of the order with full costs paid prior to the piece being completed and delivery organised.

Please note that refunds do not apply to items which have been commissioned or made to order. Please visit SOURCE to understand more about the process when commissioning work.

Delivery and Returns

Deliveries are set by the individual designer makers, visible on each of the product pages and are specified in your order email. This is the period when the seller will post your item, normally within 48 hours unless specified. If you are having an item commissioned or made to order, the designer maker will be in contact directly with regards delivery timescales.

Due to the nature of independent craft and design studios, our designer makers may be away at Fairs, Exhibitions or Events and will advise directly of any delays or changes to the delivery of work.

Delivery costs are worked out according to the product’s size and weight, as well as the destination. Please note that customers are responsible for any import charges/duties that may be incurred and must comply with any local regulations.
