If you are looking to purchase a piece of art from an art gallery, you may be wondering if the delivery of the artwork is safe. The short answer is yes, art deliveries can be safe and secure. In fact, many art galleries offer delivery services to ensure that your artwork arrives in perfect condition. Let's take a look at what makes a delivery service safe and how you can ensure your artwork is safe when it is shipped.


Secure packaging and shipping materials

When ordering art from an art gallery, make sure they only use high-quality packaging materials and shipping supplies, such as bubble wrap, corrugated boxes, double-wall cardboard boxes, Styrofoam peanuts, packing tape and other protective materials. These materials will help protect the artwork as it travels from the gallery to your home or office. Also, check that the shipping company or courier service used by the gallery has insurance for lost or damaged items - this way you can be sure that any loss due to improper packing will be covered.

Follow-up of your order

It is important to track your order so you know exactly where it is at all times. Many galleries offer tracking numbers for their orders so that customers can follow the progress of their delivery online or by phone. You'll have peace of mind knowing that your order is on its way, and you can also contact the shipper if there are any problems along the way.

Insurance coverage


In addition to tracking your order, it is also important to make sure your order is insured during shipping. Most galleries offer some sort of insurance coverage for their shipments - either through their own policies or through a third-party insurer - so that customers have recourse if something happens to their work along the way. Be sure to ask about insurance coverage before you place your order, so you know exactly what kind of protection is available in case something goes wrong during shipping.



In conclusion, the delivery of a work of art by an art gallery can be done safely as long as certain precautions are taken, such as using quality packaging materials, tracking orders online or by phone, and taking out insurance in case of loss or damage along the way. That's why we take all these precautions when you order art from Berthelet Gallery, so you can be sure that your purchase will arrive safely and in perfect condition!
