Gift Certificates
Offer a friend, family member or co-worker the gift of body and self love by giving them a VoluptuArt.com gift certificate.  You have the option of choosing any amount to gift with a minimum of $18 to start.  Go here to purchase and you will also find the Gift Certificate link under the Sale category and throughout the site in the right hand column on each product page. You will have the option of having the gift certificate sent to you or to your gift recipient.  When you choose to send it to a gift recipient, a box will appear where you will enter their email address and a gift message.  The amount of the gift certificate will be applied to the shopping cart whenever the recipient is ready to use it.   If they have set-up an account, and the gift certificate wasn’t used in full, the remainder will be kept in their account for future shopping.   
 
You may wonder why we set the gift certificate minimum at $18.  The reason is simple and thoughtful.  In Hebrew, the word Chai translates to Life or Living in English.  It is made up of 2 letters –  yud and chet.  In Jewish numerology Yud = 10 & Chet = 8.  In Jewish culture and tradition it is custom to gift multiples of $18 to signify wishes for a wonderful, long and delightful life!  Here at VoluptuArt we love gifting and make every attempt to infuse giving with supportive and positive messaging.
 

Note: we do not add Sales Tax to gift certificate purchases.

Our Artists & Fair Trade

Our art & gift items are created by artists from around the globe, most of whom we connect with personally and others who are represented by reputable Fair Trade organizations ensuring that the artisans receive fair compensation for their artwork.  Click here for more on Our Artists.

Handmade item disclaimer:  Due to the handmade nature of our art & gift items there may be slight variations in multiple versions of the same item.  Computer screens also contribute to displaying slight differences in color.

Gift Wrapping

On most of our product pages you will find an option to add gift wrapping for that item. Here and there you will find products we are not able to offer the gift wrapping service.  This is due to the type (example: greeting cards), size of a product or that it is being shipped directly by the artist.

Special Orders & Product Requests

If you wish to purchase a large quantity of any of our items or would like us to research the possibility of obtaining items you don’t see offered on the site, please ask.  We will do our best to fulfill your order needs.  With some of our artists there is the option of requesting custom pieces.  You may make your request through the Contact Us page.

This includes our Dancing Woman logo. We had a vision of a woman who sits firmly in her body, moves with grace & delight and wears the sassy & self affirming color of red. The image of a woman we hope any woman can relate to in some aspect of herself. Our graphic designer, Annie Danberg, did an exquisite job of translating our vision into a gorgeous drawing.

Ani Yaffa, LLC: Just in case you were wondering what the name of our LLC (Limited Liability Co.) is all about – the words are Hebrew and translate to “I Am Beautiful!”

Customer Service

Our philosophy is to give you a positive shopping experience from beginning to end that is much more than simply making a purchase. VoluptuArt was born out of wanting to offer art & gift items that support you to develop a positive and healing relationship with your body and your sense of self.  That intention is woven throughout our store in caring messages, sharing about and honoring Our Artists and, offering thoughtful product explanations that provide ideas for how to use our items as healing tools.  We also make every effort to pack your order with beautiful materials (organza bags & tissue papers) and care.  We want you to feel cared for.  We’re available via phone or email to attend to any of your questions or needs, and we welcome all types of feedback.
