At The Lanam Shop, we take great care to ensure your order is dispatched efficiently and delivered safely. Please review the following guidelines for shipping timeframes, fees, and responsibilities.
Shipping Rates & Geographic Coverage
For orders shipped within the contiguous United States totaling $150 or more (excluding tax and shipping fees), we provide complimentary ground shipping via USPS or UPS. For orders below $150, a flat-rate fee of $7.95 applies (or $9.95 for expedited shipping). Select items may be eligible for UPS Next Day Air ($65), UPS Second Day Air ($45), or UPS 3-Day ($35). Orders over $500 may require a signature for delivery, at our discretion.
International shipping is available to over 200 countries & territories on a Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) basis. For eligible countries, we will collect all duties, taxes, and fees associated with importing your order at the time of checkout and they will be added as separate line items on your invoice and paid for when the order is placed. No additional fees should be due – if you are charged a fee at the time of delivery, obtain a receipt and notify us immediately so we can work to resolve it with you. DDP deliveries will be offered by DHL or UPS, depending on the destination. No international returns will be accepted.

Hollow Handle Pieces
Hollow handle is a term used to describe a standard method of flatware construction. These pieces have a sterling silver handle with an interior portion where a shafted piece is cemented secure — most knives and some large serving pieces use this construction method. Typically, the upper portion of the piece is made using 18/10 stainless steel or hardened steel if it is a knife blade.
