S/H for all unframed velvet paintings measuring 18x24 and shipped within the continental U.S. is $15. Adding a frame increases s/h/framing charges to total of $30. Frames range from $25 (eg for traditional Mexican wooden Rustico Frames) to $50 (eg for Ornate Golden Frames), if you want to add one, let me know which kind, I'll send a revised invoice to reflect its addition. I ship via UPS-Ground or FedEx-Ground with $100 insurance. For shipments outside continental U.S. buyer pays whatever my actual s/h costs are to ship to their particular country, or I can remove velvet from stretcher bars, roll it up and ship it in a shipping tube anywhere world-wide for the same $15 s/h I charge to ship within the continental U.S.
