Protect your purchase

Arts Bound is an association of independent artists. Each artist is personally responsible for their artwork, its authenticity, delivery, and compliance with the stated specifications. We bring artists and collectors together to make the purchasing process safe and transparent.

Verified Artists

We only work with artists who have been selected and agreed to work within the association’s guidelines. However, each artist remains responsible for each transaction, artwork, and shipping.

Arts Bound Support

Our team is ready to assist you in communicating with artists. You can contact us at sale@arts-bound.info for advice on choosing artwork or assistance with any questions.

Price Negotiations

As with a gallery, buyers can make an offer to the artist. The association can assist in communicating your request, but the final decision rests with the artist.

Authenticity

We work directly with artists and encourage them to sign their works and include a Certificate of Authenticity. If a certificate is not included, we can contact the artist upon your request. The artist confirms the authenticity and uniqueness of a work.

Original Art

An original is a unique piece (painting, drawing, sculpture, limited edition graphic).

A reproduction is a printed copy of the original. Even if it is signed and numbered, it is not an original work of art.

Original prints (lithographs, etchings, stencils, etc.) are created by hand and are considered authentic.

Payment Security

We recommend paying for orders through PayPal, which provides a high level of buyer protection.

Returns and Damage

Notify us of your return within 14 days of receiving the work.

Refunds are issued after the work is returned directly to the artist (minus shipping costs).

In case of damage, shipping and return arrangements are agreed upon with the artist.

Shipping

Shipping costs and arrangements are determined by the artist. The price depends on the size, weight, and distance of the work.
