If you are purchasing a framed artwork, a high-value piece (£5,000 or more), or an artwork sold on consignment from one of our clients, we offer different levels of service tailored to both you and your artwork's needs.

Once you've bought an artwork, we aim to ship your order within 5 working days. You will be updated with the tracking information.

Transit times vary depending on where you are based. If you are in the UK, your artwork should be delivered the next working day. If you are outside the UK, you should receive your artwork within 1 week of dispatch, subject to customs checks.

If there are any delays in shipping, we'll notify you. If an artwork requires bespoke packing or is sold from our consignor network, we will contact you after you have placed your order.

We are pleased to offer a selection of editions and multiples available on consignment.

Consignments are artworks sold on behalf of our clients. Some consigned artworks are available to purchase directly through our website.

If you are interested in an artwork that we are selling on consignment, please fill out the form or contact us by email and a member of our gallery team will confirm the artwork’s availability with our consignor and get back to you as soon as possible with further details.

Absolutely, we'd be happy to. We’re here to make sure your framing needs are met, whatever they may be. We can take care of everything for you, or if you prefer, we can introduce you to our framing partners to discuss your preferences and specifications, while we handle all the logistics. Either way, we’ll make the process seamless for you from start to finish. Speak with a member of the sales team for more information if you’re interested.

We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service from the moment you purchase an artwork to the moment it's delivered. Let us handle the details! Our bespoke, comprehensive shipping service ensures complete peace of mind:

Professional packing, tailored to your artwork and its destination
Personalised tracking updates from our post-sales manager
Expert support for international transit, including customs advice and guidance
Fully comprehensive insurance, covering the full value of your purchase in the unlikely event of transit damage

With us, your artwork is in safe hands—every step of the way.

Since 10 January 2020, the 5th EU Money Laundering Directive has required art market professionals, including secondary market dealers (under which Lougher Contemporary falls), to undertake anti-money laundering checks on all buyers who acquire a work of art priced at €10,000 or more (or have acquired more than one work of art with an aggregate price of €10,000 or more).

We take our responsibility to comply with anti-money laundering regulations seriously and we ask you to respect this. While we recognise that it may be a minor inconvenience, if we ask you for proof of identification and confirmation of address, please understand that this is now a requirement placed on us by law.

We are committed to the environment and are always working on ways to make the brand and what we do more environmentally friendly. Currently, we offer DHL Green shipping rates, paying the extra to go green. We also use biodegradable packing peanuts, as well as keeping all packing material to a minimum to reduce waste. This is an ongoing process and wherever possible we will try to offer the greenest solution to logistics.

Get in touch if you have any ideas on how we can improve after you've received a parcel from us.

If we arrange the shipping (which is typically the case when buying from us), we insure all artworks for their full value. We kindly ask you to notify us straight away in the event of damage or loss in transit. 

In the unlikely event that an artwork arrives damaged, please contact us immediately. If there is any noticeable damage to the packaging, please do not open it to inspect the artwork but contact us immediately for advice on next steps. Under our Terms of Business, it is the Buyer's responsibility to notify us of any damage within 72 hours. If you contact us after 72 hours, we cannot accept responsibility for damage to the artwork as it will be difficult to prove when the damage occurred.

In the unlikely event that you are not happy with your purchase, send us an email as soon as possible and we'll get back to you. We'll be happy to advise further and discuss your options. 

Buyers ordering from outside of the UK may be required to pay import duty and/or taxes. Please note that any import taxes or duty are the responsibility of the buyer – this includes EU-based clients from 1 January 2021. We cannot accept any responsibility or liability for import tax and/or duty charged by your local tax authority if you are importing a work of art ordered from us into your country.
