How to Buy

We hope you can visit us but you can also make a purchase through our website or by telephone.  Many items can be posted in the UK and beyond*.

Website purchase
Payment can be made with a debit/credit card processed by PayPal, a secure third-party service provider.  NB: You do not need a PayPal account to make a purchase but you may like to take advantage of the ‘Take 3’ interest-free payments with a Paypal account?  You can set up a PayPal account or check through as ‘Guest’.

Alternatively, you may prefer to complete the enquiry form; and we will contact you to arrange payment and delivery over the telephone.

Telephone purchase
You can also arrange a purchase by calling us on 01770 700250.  Payment can be made with a debit/credit card.  The gallery is open daily from 10am until 5pm (closed for lunch 1-1.30pm).

If you have seen something you like in the gallery and wish you had brought it home with you then please contact us.  We are happy to help arrange delivery by post or by specialist courier for larger works of art.

Buying a Gift?
If you are looking for something for a special person and you are just not sure what they would like, then may we suggest an Arran Art Gallery Gift Voucher?  This can be for any value and includes a complimentary artist card for your own message or we can write one for you and post it directly to the lucky recipient.

A brief guide to delivery options

Postal Service
For deliveries within the UK we use Royal Mail. The cost of delivery includes postage and packaging.

Depending on the dimensions, the weight and the value, artwork can be posted with either by ‘First Class Signed For’, ‘Special Delivery’, guaranteed to arrive the next working day (Mon-Fri) if posted by lunchtime; or by ‘Parcelforce’ which takes 48 working hours.

You will need to sign for the delivery so you may prefer to give a work or alternative address for delivery. Your artwork will be carefully packaged and fully insured against loss or damage.

Glasswork
It is not possible to insure glassworks but we will post an item up to £85 at our own risk (except for framed prints).  Anticipated delivery times are given at the time of order but it is not possible to guarantee delivery times.

Specialist Courier
We use a specialist art courier service to delivery artwork anywhere in the UK mainland.  Delivery takes approx. 2-3 weeks depending on logistics. Please remember that we are based on an island and the weather can sometimes cause disruptions to the ferry service and this can cause a slight delay. However, we strive to provide a timely and efficient delivery service for our clients.

Complimentary Delivery to the Mainland
We also offer a complimentary delivery service to the mainland for collection at one of our framers in Prestwick or Glasgow; or we can meet you off the ferry.  This may take 2-3 weeks, depending on logistics but if you catch us at the right time it could be quicker!

Buy and Collect
If you or a friend are due to visit Arran then you may wish to purchase your artwork on the website and collect it from the gallery at a future date. We will package your purchase and keep it safe until your visit.

Overseas
* We will consider delivery to Europe or beyond, depending on the value and size of the artwork.  We use a specialist courier for this service.
