ⓘ Disclaimer — Estimated Rates Only
Shipping rates shown on this page are for guidance only and drawn from supplier data (theprintspace, Contrado, DHL, and partner mills).
Prices may change without prior notice as partner tariffs, insurance rates, or courier policies are updated.
For Burnished Gold Editions, the delivery quote is shown at checkout where available. Other products may use the checkout total, delivery included in the product offer, or a separately agreed specialist quote. The charge or calculation method is explained before purchase; additional charges require your agreement.
Important Notice About Shipping Charges
Burnished Gold Editions: DHL delivery is calculated at checkout where available; any applicable remote-area surcharge is included in the quote. Kilts and woven accessories: a separate delivery invoice may follow final packing where that arrangement and the calculation method have been disclosed and agreed before purchase. A clearly labelled collection option has no delivery charge. Any delivery charge is disclosed and agreed before you commit to it.
Important framed-artwork checkout note: if checkout shows Customer collection from Aizle Framing, Balfron, Customer collection only from Aizle Framing, Balfron, or a similar £0.00 / “FREE” shipping line, this means customer collection by appointment only. It does not mean free delivery. Eligible local/regional postcodes may also be offered Aizle local/regional framed artwork delivery at £49. Other delivery arrangements require a custom quote before dispatch.
DHL checkout quoting is now in use for the Burnished Gold Editions where the destination and service are supported. Other product routes remain separate.

Burnished Gold Editions — DHL Delivery from Arbroath
Our current unframed Declaration of Arbroath editions are printed, numbered, certified and packed in Arbroath in Black Onyx, Pewter and Pearl, in Collector and Life-Size formats.
- Preparation: allow 5–7 working days from your deposit or full payment, subject to stock availability. DHL transit time is additional.
- Your delivery price: use the quote for your address, selected service and complete order at checkout. Any applicable DHL remote-area surcharge is included. A rate for one address or one print is not a universal flat price.
- Multiple prints: the rate relates to the order and its packing requirements; more than one parcel may be needed.

- International delivery: availability depends on the destination and service offered. Destination duties, import taxes and clearance fees are payable by the customer unless expressly collected or included in the checkout or an agreed quote.
- No rate or a special request: contact us before ordering if a suitable quote is unavailable, if you need delivery to your framer or if timing is essential.
The Aizle collection and £49 specialist framed-artwork arrangements below are a different route and do not apply to these unframed Burnished Gold prints.
1. Declaration 3D Facsimiles and Legacy Framed Gold Artwork
Specialist Framed Artwork Delivery
Framed Declaration artworks, including Declaration 3D Fine Art Facsimiles and legacy framed Declaration Gold Metallic Print Editions, require specialist handling. Depending on the product, size and destination, checkout may offer local/regional Aizle delivery, collection from Aizle Framing by appointment, or a custom delivery quote arranged before dispatch. Where a framed Declaration artwork is reserved with a deposit or part-payment, the remaining balance and any agreed delivery charge must be paid before the item is released, collected, delivered, dispatched, or fulfilled.
Local / Regional Aizle Framing Delivery
For eligible local and regional postcodes, checkout may show:
Aizle local/regional framed artwork delivery — £49
This option is available only for approved postcode areas where specialist delivery from Aizle Framing, Balfron is practical. If this option does not appear for your address, contact us to check availability and any alternative quote. A missing rate can have several causes and is not by itself proof that your postcode is outside the delivery area.
Collection from Aizle Framing
Customers may also choose:
Collection from Aizle Framing, Balfron — by appointment only
This collection option appears at checkout with no shipping charge. Collection must be arranged by appointment after ordering. If checkout shows this option as £0.00 or “FREE”, this means customer collection only from Aizle Framing, Balfron; it does not mean free delivery.
Addresses Outside the Local Delivery Area
If you require delivery and the £49 Aizle delivery option does not appear at checkout, please contact The Tartan Artisan® before ordering. A custom delivery quote may be possible depending on destination, artwork size, insurance requirements, and safe handling arrangements. Any agreed custom delivery, packing, insurance, or courier charge must be paid before dispatch or delivery.
International Enquiries
International shipping for framed Declaration artworks, including Declaration 3D Fine Art Facsimiles and legacy framed Declaration Gold Metallic Print Editions, is not offered automatically at checkout. Overseas customers should contact The Tartan Artisan® before ordering so that suitability, packing risk, courier options, insurance, and costs can be considered individually.
2. Designer Kilts & Highland Wear
Made to Order – Carefully Presented
