U.S. Shipping Paused — Protecting Transparency and the SteinKunstWerk Experience

Shipping Policy Update

We've Paused Shipping to the United States — Effective Immediately

SteinKunstWerk is built on clarity, intention, and quiet design. We only ship where we can guarantee a transparent and reliable experience.

Due to changes in US customs policy and the tariff framework introduced by the current administration, the cost structure for shipping to the United States has increased significantly. Additional duties, customs processing requirements, and carrier surcharges have made delivery conditions unpredictable and disproportionately expensive. For that reason, we are pausing shipping to the United States as of now.


Why this decision became necessary

Recent regulatory adjustments have changed how international parcels entering the US are treated. Shipments that previously moved smoothly may now require expanded customs processing and can trigger mandatory duties and additional handling fees.

Beyond formal tariffs, logistics providers have adapted their workflows to comply with new requirements. This results in increased administrative handling, higher transport costs, and a higher likelihood of unexpected charges at delivery.

For a boutique brand focused on trust and long-term relationships, these conditions do not align with our standards.


Our principle

We will not offer checkout conditions that appear simple while delivery becomes costly and uncertain. Every order should feel intentional — from selection to arrival.

  • Clear pricing
  • Predictable delivery
  • No surprise fees

If you are based in the United States

Some customers use an EU-based forwarding address and arrange onward shipping independently. Please note that any duties, taxes, and import handling are managed externally and may vary depending on the service used.

We are closely monitoring the regulatory environment. If shipping conditions become stable and transparent again, we will reassess this decision.


Shipping within the European Union

We continue to ship reliably within the EU. Nothing changes for customers in Europe. Our collections remain available with the same care and packaging standards.
