Dragons for Peace Collection

The Dragons for Peace collection is here to help raise money for those affected by the war in Ukraine, as well as reminding us of the strength and beauty of peace and courage that still exists in this world, even today ♡

30% of all proceeds from each dragon this collection (and as of now, all proceeds from left over dragons from previous collections as well!) and 100% of proceeds from my "Dragon for Ukraine" dragon, will be donated to the British Red Cross Ukraine Appeal. They are providing much needed humanitarian aid to those affected by the war in Ukraine.

To learn more about the good work they are doing, feel free to follow this link and read for yourself!

Once your payment has cleared to my bank account (this will be almost instant if you pay with Paypal) I will make the donation and email you with the forwarded email receipt from the charity showing the correct donation of the amount you paid. Please be aware I'm on holiday from 11th - 14th March so I may have to send your donations on Monday 14th at the latest if I end up having limited internet access while away.

Dragon for Ukraine

This dragon was designed with the plight of the Ukrainian people in mind (and indeed, the plight of all those who are being affected physically or psychologically by this war). His body is the colours of the flag, yellow and blue, and he is surrounded by sunflowers, the national flower. He brings a message of peace, strength, and the idea that no matter how much destruction is inflicted, the beauty of nature can always grow back, and so too can the kindness of the human spirit. There is always hope for a beautiful, peaceful world to come. Especially when this crisis has highlighted the willingness of ordinary people to come together to help others in need. ♡

Made from polymer clay, faux sunflowers and plants, hot glue, and a mini terracotta plant pot.

100% of the proceeds from this particular dragon ("Dragon for Ukraine") will be donated to the British Red Cross Ukraine Appeal. They are providing much needed humanitarian aid to those affected by the war in Ukraine.

Thank you so much in advance to whoever purchases this dragon that I put my heart and soul into, as you will be helping me to make a big contribution to the humanitarian efforts that are so needed in Ukraine right now. ♡

Extra (IMPORTANT!) information:

Standard shipping is always free for UK residents, though I would recommend selecting the tracked option at checkout to receive a tracking number that can help locate your package in the event of it going missing or being delayed by the postal services.

After a few incidents of packages being delayed on their way to the US, I feel obliged to make tracked shipping the only mandatory option for US and foreign customers. This is because Covid 19 has brought chaos to our postal services and it's become increasingly clear how important it is to have a tracking number, as if not, there is no way for us to find where your package has gone if it gets lost or delayed on its way to you. Once a package leaves my hands at the post office, unfortunately it is completely out of my control, so I do apologise that the unreliability of the US postal services has made it necessary for me to need to take this step.

Please note that this item, along with any other items that are sold by The Adornarium, are intended for decorative use only, and not as toys for small children (although very fun to gently handle and admire)! ♡

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any queries about the specific measurements of this piece.

£159.00

Any finished sculpture or item of jewellery of mine that you receive, should be relatively strong, but not indestructible. As such, adequate care should be taken to ensure that the piece is out of reach of pets, children, and the possibility of being dropped, as you would with any other fragile ornament in the home. That being said, it will be certainly be strong enough for moderate handling as you examine it and admire its unique features! :)
Will I have to pay extra for shipping/postage?

Postage is free for anyone using standard 2nd class or international standard delivery. Unfortunately those outside the UK must pay extra for postage if they want it to be tracked, and UK customers must pay extra if they want their order sent by special delivery guarenteed, (the only option that offers tracking information) otherwise shipping costs can be too expensive for me to cover just in the price of an item alone. I would HIGHLY recommend (especially in this time of covid 19 bringing chaos to our postal services) that both UK and US customers pay for the shipping option that offers tracking, as if not, there will be no way for us to find where your package has gone if it gets lost or delayed on its way to you. I cannot accept responsibility, nor give out refunds or replacements, for items lost in the mail if you did not select the tracked option at checkout. Once a package leaves my hands at the post office, it is completely out of my control.

How many creations can I recieve from you in one go?

In one parcel, there will be sent a maximum of two to three creations, depending on their size. If you feel like going on a larger shopping spree (and I would not mind if you did!) expect to recieve two or three at a time, in different parcels that may be delivered on different days, depending on whether the creations you have ordered differ in the time they need to be prepared before posting (for instance, if one of your purchases includes a made-to-order item).

How long will my order take to get to me?

If you live in the UK (where I am based) you can expect your parcel to arrive within one to two weeks once I have posted it off (which may take up to a week for me to prepare beforehand if you have selected any extra additions from the drop-down menu). If you live in the US, your parcel will likely take two to three weeks to arrive after I have sent it out. It is important that these shipping times are taken into account if the item is needed before a certain deadline (e.g as a birthday present) as well as if you have purchased a made-to-order item. Extra delays are also expected for international and US customers due to covid-19 issues, which unfortunately I have no control over.

What is the difference between waiting for a made-to-order item and waiting for a pre-made item?

If the item you have ordered is classed as "made-to-order", that could add a maximum of an extra week on to the time it will take to reach you, from the moment of purchase (due to the time it will take me to hand-craft your purchase from scratch). Don't worry though - if the item you want is made-to-order, it will say in big letters at the top of the item's description. If your item does not say anything about it being made-to-order in the description, then you can assume that it is a pre-made creation, and therefore will be ready to be posted to you in a week or less.
