Shipping

We ship to the UK and internationally. If your order is placed before 3pm we aim to dispatch the same day. Orders placed after 3pm will dispatch the next day. Orders can be collected at no extra charge from our shop in Islington within a few hours of placing the order. Please note some orders may take more time due to stock levels.

Orders received after 12pm Saturday or on Sunday will dispatch the next working day. We use DPD Tracked and Signed and Parcelforce for shipping within the UK. For International orders, we use Royal Mail and the carrier will change to your national local delivery service when your order has reached customs.
 
Tracking numbers are always provided once your item(s) are in transit. If you have not received a dispatch notification within a day or two after placing your order, please get in touch with us at info@dar-leone.com.

Important Update for U.S. Orders

From 29th August 2025, the USA has removed its de-minimis threshold. This means all parcels sent to the USA are now subject to import duties and taxes, regardless of their value.

If you place an order for delivery to the USA, please note the following:

• Your parcel will be shipped via DPD.
• Before your order can be delivered, DPD will email you a secure payment link to pay any duties or taxes required by U.S. customs.
• Your parcel will be held for up to 5 days while awaiting payment. Once payment is received, it will clear customs and continue its journey to you.
• To ensure smooth delivery, please provide a valid email address and phone number at checkout.

We recommend keeping an eye on your inbox (including spam folders) for the payment link so your parcel isn’t delayed.

All Yoruba Chairs, Bamileke Stools, the Dakar Chair and Stool range and Large baskets are excluded from any Free Shipping Promotion.
