Ancient Sculpture Gallery Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Ancient Greek Vases Museum Reproductions
How are your vases made?
Our vases are NOT fastly made kitsch replicas, nor are they cheaply made of substitute materials such as
resin. We stick to the materials and methods used by ancient Greeks and use only top quality ceramics
and paints. Every piece is a stunning work of art, an amazing replica of an actual historic vessel from a
museum or other collection created between 2,800-2,000 years ago. Every piece is individually hand
thrown terracotta, hand-shaped, and hand-painted in exquisite detail in Greece and signed by a
professional master reproduction artist which masters the art of the ancient Greek pottery. The whole
process is made by hand (like in ancient times) using only top quality row materials. We respectfully
preserve the sensitivity and the dignity of ancient pieces while guaranteeing the quality and the curacy of all
the pieces we reproduce. This is why our ceramics are preferred selection of the "Hellenic Handcrafted
Creations" Collection. We offer the following types of ancient Greek vases and plates: Geometrical,
Corinthian, Black figure vases, Red figure vases, White ground vases, and other.

Is your shopping cart SECURE?
Yes, your information is secure during the ordering process with a Secure Server Certification Authority.
VeriSign SSL Certificate protects e-commerce and other private information with 128-bit encryption, the
strongest SSL protection available anywhere. Statistically, it is safer to shop online with your credit card
than in a restaurant or department store. At AncientSculptureGallery.com, protecting your personal
information is extremely important to us. To ensure that you never have to worry about credit card safety
when you shop in our store, we use security software called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), which is the
industry standard and among the best software available today for secure commerce transactions. When
you connect with our secure server, they exchange a handshake, which initiates a secure session. In most
browsers, look for a key or lock icon to indicate that you are in the SSL mode. From that point on during your
secure session, all the information sent between you and AncientSculptureGallery.com is protected by SSL
encryption.
How do I place an order?
Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse through our on-line Shop, click on any items that you
wish to buy and put them into the shopping basket. After you have finished your selection, click on "Go to
Checkout" and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to satisfy your requirements.
Orders can be placed via our SECURE online shopping cart or by contacting us.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept VISA, Master Card, American Express, Discover, Paypal, Diners Card, JCB, bank transfer,
personal checks and money orders, whichever is the most convenient for you (your item will be shipped as
soon as the check or the money order clear).
How will you confirm my order?
All orders will be confirmed via email on the day of receipt.
Do you charge sales tax?
Appropriate state sales tax will be added to orders shipped to residents of New Jersey.
In what currency are your prices?
All prices as well as shipping costs and taxes are in US Dollars.
How do you package and ship your merchandise?
We are very careful about how our items are packaged and shipped. We do not want the item to break in
transit! The merchandise is carefully packaged and boxed in order to ensure safe transit.
How much will shipping and handling be?
We base our shipping and handling rates on the actual weight and dimensions of the items you select
(this cost also includes the packaging). The shopping cart will calculate the shipping amount when you
are ready to make the purchase - this applies to customers from the United States of America only. For our
customers outside USA the shipping and handling charge varies from country to country. Because of this
extreme variance the shipping cart does not calculate the shipping charges for countries outside USA and
its default is $0.00. If you live outside USA, let us know when you want to place your order and we will
calculate the shipping cost to your country. You can then go to the shipping cart and place your order.
How long does it take for delivery?
We manufacture your vase in strict rotation as orders arrive. Please note that the vases are made by
master artisan in Greece. We aim to deliver the complete product to the end customer in 30-45 days from
the time of receiving the order.
Do you accept orders and ship to other countries besides the US and Canada?
Yes we do, we can ship to almost any country in the world.
What is your Return Policy?
We insure all of our shipments. If your item has been damaged during the shipping, please contact us and
we will make arrangements with you for the return and replacement of the damaged item. Please contact
us immediately so that we can file a damage claim with the shipper. Credit will not be issued unless you
notify us the same day you received the shipment and by providing pictures of the damage. Please note
that you will need to save the packing materials for the shipper to inspect. Insurance is void otherwise. We
will not be responsible for damaged merchandise not in its original packaging.
What is your Privacy Policy?
Your privacy is assured as it is of great concern to Ancient Sculpture Gallery. Ancient Sculpture Gallery
does not disclose, sell, trade or share any personal information that it collects to third parties, other than in
the course of completing a transaction, providing you with information that you have requested, or in
