Note:
With the high cost of shipping many of our customers choose to ship by USPS. For small and light shipments this is usually less expensive, but please be aware that their estimates are often wrong and their service can be very slow (sixteen days for Priority Mail from Philadelphia to New York City recently). The service is not always as economical as it may appear, particularly on larger or more valuable shipments. USPS estimates only include insurance up to $100 for its domestic shipments. If you ask for full insurance we will recalculate the shipping cost and send you an invoice for any difference in cost. For overseas shipments USPS will not insure for over $650. On request we can get estimates for overseas shipping from DHL.
Marie Islande Ulysse creates papier maché pieces as a member of the Dam Dam Cooperative in Haiti. The group was created to help members rebuild their lives post-earthquake through creative use of recycled materials. Their papier maché and mixed-media pieces are both functional and decorative, transforming what would have otherwise been waste into art.
