Frequently Asked Questions
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes, I offer free worldwide shipping. If your location is not on the country list, please notify me via the contact form.
Can I reserve a piece?
I can not reserve pieces. To make it a fair opportunity to have a ghost by announcing my shop updates via subscriber emails and on Instagram a week leading to the day of the sale. It is based on a first come first serve basis, unfortunately. If you do not wish to miss a favorite, please subscribe to my email list below and turn on post and story notifications on Instagram.
I had an item in my cart but when I tried to pay, it said sold out.
Unfortunately, Shopify does not hold the piece for you while you type your information. It is only sold once the payment is through. If someone gets to it before you, it will show up as sold out and I have no control over it. To fasten this process, you can create an account on my page and have all of your shipping and payment information saved before the release so you don't have to spend the extra time adding it in.
Are you still making the ghosts that you made in the past?
Yes. I occasionally rotate between my designs when I feel the same feelings again or when its season arrives. But I am one tiny me in my studio sculpting these souls so I can not make everything all the time. If you wish to see a design back, let me know by sending a message via the contact form or on Instagram.
Commissions
From time to time, I accept custom sculpture requests and list the options in the shop. If there is no listing on the website for the commissions, you can contact me via the contact form or send a message on Instagram to check for the availability of my time.
How much are the ghosts?
All of my ghosts are hand-built ceramic sculptures that take several weeks to complete from start to finish. The price range depends on the material used, the time spent designing it, and which other extra processes are applied to each. For the gold-detailed ghosts, I use a real 22K gold finish unless stated otherwise. The gemstones used in the sculptures are real authenticated and ethically sourced crystals. All ghosts, after being hand sculpted and dried for hours, are fired up to 1250°C (at least once) and then the embellishments, if any, are applied and fired again.
Taking into account this heavy work of labor and heart, the regular-sized ghosts (5-7cm) range between €100-150. Sometimes tiny souls call for me and they are priced €50-75. Bigger makes and more time- and labor-consuming creations can go up to €175-200. The prices are inclusive of worldwide of shipping and no extra VAT applies for overseas.
Exception: An additional compulsory %9 VAT for art pieces applies to the shipments within the European Union.
