Every shipment is handled case by case — your destination, piece type, and timeline shape how we route and deliver. Bespoke timber crating, full insurance, legal export documentation, and white-glove delivery are standard on every order. Get in touch and we will give you a specific timeline and cost.
Every piece is filmed and photographed before packing. You receive a pre-shipment condition report and a video walkthrough before we crate.

Shipping antique teak internationally is not a catalogue process. Piece dimensions, destination country, customs requirements, and local logistics all shape the route and timeline. We do not publish fixed transit times because giving you a number that turns out wrong is worse than having the right conversation first.
