Shipping

The timeline for your order depends on the customization you choose:

Kit only: If you choose the "Kit only" option, your order will be processed and ready for shipment within 1–3 business days.

Kit + 12 Schmincke paints: After you order, we hand-pour the professional-grade paints directly into the walnut grid. The palette then requires 3–5 days to cure properly. This slow-drying process ensures the paint won’t crack or bleed during transit.

Once dispatched, you'll receive a personal tracking link by email.

— USA: 10–12 days via USPS, FedEx, or UPS

— Canada: 10–12 days via Canada Post

— Australia & NZ: 10–12 days via Australia Post or Aramex

Each kit is inspected before packing. If anything arrives damaged, we'll make it right.

Closed, It's a Book. Open, It's a Studio.

A morning train through Tuscany. A bench in Porto where you can hear the trams. Twenty minutes between flights at Schiphol.

The Folio fits in the pocket where your phone lives — pulled out, opened, painted, closed again before the announcement comes through.

A whole trip turns into a stack of small originals you didn't have to share with an algorithm to remember.
