Due to the fragile and heavy nature of these dishes, they will be shipped heavily wrapped via priority mail (typically in flat rate boxes.)  Shipping prices have been adjusted to reflect this.  For Canadian and International customers, I am willing to send a cheaper way, please select local and you will be invoiced for First Class shipping.  It is HIGHLY suggested that you purchase insurance when selecting this option.  Insurance, should you choose to add that option, will be added to your shipping invoice.
