ETHICS & CRAFT
At NOOS Entomology, we give a second life to specimens from old entomological collections formed before 2000.
Each butterfly is selected with care, restored meticulously and displayed by hand, in respect of its history and its uniqueness.
Our approach rests on preserving this ancient natural heritage, without breeding new specimens for our creations.
These compositions allow insects kept for several decades to regain their place in our interiors, between scientific curiosity and decorative object.
SHIPPING
To offer controlled shipping costs, orders are shipped to a pickup point or to a locker, depending on the options offered by the carrier and the destination.
After your purchase, you can contact me to indicate your preferred pickup point. The final choice will depend on the available delivery options.
PACKAGING & PROTECTION
Protecting our compositions is considered from the design stage.
Each globe receives specific preparation to limit the effects of vibrations and handling during transport.
Your order is then carefully packed using protective materials suited to the fragility of the glass and the specimen.
We favor, as much as possible, packaging materials that are reusable or recyclable.
Shipping charges include this preparation as well as the transport and protections required to move these particularly delicate objects.
Despite all precautions, a transit incident remains possible. In case of a problem on receipt, please keep the packaging and contact us quickly, in accordance with Catawiki's claims procedures.
