Custom art prints (framed and unframed) and print-to-order-gifts

Print-to-order gifts, art prints and framed prints are bespoke, made-to-order goods. Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations these goods do not attract the same cancellation rights that typically apply to a distance contract. If you change your mind prior to production starting and contact us to let us know, you will not be charged for your order. If you contact us to cancel your order after dispatch, a 50% fee of the cost of each returned item will be deducted from your refund. Please find dispatch times within our Delivery information.
