Commissions & Bespoke Figures
As each piece requires many hours of intricate work and a long production process lasting several months, I am only able to produce a limited number of figures per year. Orders for commissioned reproductions and bespoke pieces are strictly limited. I open a limited number of spaces in my order book once a year in the spring and these are filled on a first come first serve basis.
How to Order
I would be delighted to make bespoke pieces for you...
​
I am deeply grateful to all my wonderful clients for the unwavering support and enthusiasm you have shown me over the last two decades. As the demand for my work has grown, I have realised that adjusting my pricing is a necessary step to reflect the time, care and artistry that goes into each of my creations.​
Last year, I tentatively tested my work on eBay auctions and I was both humbled and delighted by the results, with winning bids achieving between £700 and £2000 for one figure. This incredible response has affirmed the value of my creations and allows me to continue working at the highest standard.
​While I understand this represents a significant shift from my previous pricing, it ensures I can dedicate the time and energy needed to create to produce my best work. If you are interested in commissioning bespoke pieces, I would be delighted to hear from you!
How to commission your bespoke figure...
Tell me a little about the personality of the character you would like me to create. Consider their age, gender, size, hair and eye colour.
Tell me about the era your character is from. The roaring 20s or the elegant regency period, consider their social class and whether they live in the town or country.
Please be very specific about the posture of your character. Are they sitting, standing, sleeping.
Finally, don't forget the details! What fabric would you like me to use? Please consider the shoes you would like on the figure and the hairstyle. Please state whether you would like accessories.
Terms & Conditions
1.
REPRODUCTION PIECES:
Due to the strictly limited number of spaces in my order book, please note that once you have commissioned a reproduction of a piece, you are agreeing to purchase the item when it is complete.
2.
BESPOKE PIECES:
Bespoke pieces are produced specifically for one person's requirements and therefore are not suitable for resale. For this reason, when commissioning a bespoke piece, you enter an agreement to purchase the figure once it has been produced, provided it has been created according to the original brief.
3.
ALTERATIONS:
Please provide the most detailed brief possible when commissioning your figure. Additions and alterations beyond the original brief might be possible on the strict understanding that this will be at an additional cost.
4.
LEAD TIME:
Lead time is at least six months due to the complexity of the work and my current waiting list. Bespoke orders made at the end of the summer may take up to 12 months. Bespoke pieces might be longer.
5.
DESPOSIT:
I take a deposit of 20% upfront to secure the space in my order book which will be deducted from the final balance. I accept full payment once you have seen high resolution pictures of the finished piece. ​
6.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING:
All parcels are sent by tracked & signed service.
Buyers are responsible for any import duties that may be levied. Please advise and provide billing address if shipping address is different. Parcels can only be sent to the address provided by the buyer.
