Shipping
We have three warehouses where we store and collect artworks for our auctions and online charity store. Our main stock is located in Albania, where we manage our operations. In Ukraine, we collect paintings by Ukrainian artists, which are then forwarded to our Albanian warehouse. We also have a large warehouse facility in the state of Georgia in the USA.
When you purchase an item from us, we normally send it by mail on the next two business days after we receive payment. If you pay by bank check (we are served by a bank in the United States), we will send your purchase once the payment is credited to our account.
Regarding photographic works by the MELNIKOFF brand, and for digital artworks to be done in acrylic glass, please note that these works are produced in a single copy with a certificate of authenticity and a personalized plaque of appreciation. Please expect some additional time for its production in Kyiv. The production of a single work in acrylic glass and its packaging takes up to two weeks. To ensure safe arrival, we ship the work in a crate. However, we assure you that the unique and high-quality work of contemporary photographic art you will receive is worth the wait.
As a token of appreciation, individuals or a company, who purchase items worth more than $3,000 will receive a personalized Good Samaritan wall plaque at no additional cost. In some cases, we include a Good Samaritan plaque along with items priced below $3,000, as indicated in the item’s description. The plaque features a laser-engraved stainless steel plate affixed to a precious wooden board. Despite the challenging times when Russian missiles still rain down on residential buildings in Ukraine, skilled Ukrainian artisans persevere to create these exquisite plaques as a testament to their unwavering spirit and commitment to beauty in the face of adversity. Our donors will receive a personalized Good Samaritan wall plaque directly from the freedom-fighting Ukrainian city.
It’s important to note that all proceeds from this store will be directed towards the Rehabilitation Center named after Mother Teresa in Albania, which is run by the Soul of Ukraine Foundation, Inc., from Florida, and provides support to children from Ukraine who have lost limbs due to the bombing of Ukrainian cities by the Russian army.
