3D ART FULFILLMENT

Preorder Information for original 3D Art: Each 3D artwork is hand-carved, painted, and dried over a careful 2-day process to ensure the drying, uniqueness and fine quality of every original piece. Orders typically ship on the second or third day, depending on the time the preorder is placed and frame size availability.  Shipping is handled through USPS Priority Mail, and a tracking number will be provided for your convenience. Please note: Bethel does not offer Express Mail service, so all orders will be sent via Priority Mail.​

• Completion time is based on the complexity and the number of mixed media,

  • 3-4 days for the 11”x14” frames

  • 4-6 days with complex designs and figurines for 16”x20” frames

• Because of our remote location sometimes we may be out of a frame size and will add a 5-7 day wait. During the wait, the artwork will be completed ahead of the frame order.

• If at your request, homemade frames can be made but limited to 11”x14” size with added cost. These homemade frames are made with glass from used windows that come with ultraviolet protection. The glass is thicker and heavier than commercial frames. Ask Atsaq if a homemade one could be made.

• We use templates to create figurines, carved to size and painted. ​
