Shipping Nationally and Internationally
Aboriginal Art Galleries ships all artworks rolled up in a sturdy travel tube nationally and internationally and this service includes insurance. We use a number of couriers such as TNT, FedEx and Australia Post depending on size and weight of what we are shipping. Please contact us if you need anything shipped and we can quote you based on destination and item being shipped.
Framing
Whilst there is a multitude of opions for framing art, Aboriginal art is typically either stretched on a stretcher bar and ready to hang or stretched and then shadow box framed to give it a more formal look. The simplicity of both these framing styles are perfect for Aboriginal art. Your local framer will be very familiar with both these options and will be able to have your artwork ready to hang in no time!!
For our domestic clients, as an add on service, we do offer to have our artworks stretched, ready to hang at wholesale prices. Please contact us for exact prices.
