FAQ

Ordering

What is the minimum order quantity?

Samples have no minimum. The wholesale minimum is 30 pieces in total β€” mix models and colours freely across the catalogue at no extra charge. Tier discounts apply from 100 pieces (βˆ’12%) and 500 pieces (βˆ’20%). Custom designs are made from 100 pieces per design.

Can I mix colours or models in one order?

Yes. The 30-piece minimum is a total, not per model β€” mix colours, models and categories freely. Your order total decides your price tier: βˆ’12% from 100 pieces, βˆ’20% from 500 pieces, applied automatically at checkout.

Do you offer customisation and private label?

Yes β€” custom colours (from 100 pcs per design), engraving, gold work, branded packaging, and exclusive new shapes (from 1,000 pcs, sample in 15 days). Use the custom request box on any product page.

Gift sets & occasion boxes

What is the minimum for gift sets?

30 sets in total β€” mix set designs freely, the same way you mix models in our standard 30-piece minimum. Tier discounts apply from 100 and 500 sets.

Can you put our brand on the gift boxes?

Yes β€” logo foil-stamping, printed sleeves, ribbon colours and insert cards from 30 sets. Engraving on the glass itself from 100 sets. Send your logo file and we'll mock it up before production.

Do gift sets survive shipping?

Each piece is individually wrapped inside its gift box, and gift boxes are packed into reinforced export cartons. Our standard breakage policy applies: anything broken in transit is replaced on your next order or credited.

Production & shipping

How long does production take?

15–25 days for made-to-order runs, confirmed on your order. In-stock samples ship within 2 business days.

How is the glass protected in transit?

Individual wrapping, honeycomb dividers and reinforced export cartons. Any breakage is replaced or credited on your next order β€” send photos within 7 days of delivery.

Which countries do you ship to?

Worldwide. DHL Express for samples, air freight for small wholesale, sea freight from Alexandria for pallets and containers. Orders over 30 kg receive a freight quote within 24 hours.

Who pays import duties?

The buyer, on arrival (DAP), including on sample boxes. In the United States every shipment is now subject to duty, whatever its value. Ask us for a DDP quote if you prefer duties included.

Payment & trust

How can I trust an overseas supplier?

Start with the $169 sample box β€” $50 of its DHL shipping is credited to your first bulk order. Ask for a live video tour of the workshop. Pay bulk orders 30/70 so the balance is only due after you see pre-shipment photos of your actual order.

We buy from you on Alibaba β€” is this the same company?

Yes β€” same factory, same craftsmen: Grand Bazaar Egypt For Export. Ordering direct gives you better pricing, card payment, and faster communication. Your Alibaba history counts toward your account here.

Is each piece really handmade?

Yes β€” mouth-blown and hand-finished in Cairo. Small variations in colour and form are the signature of genuine handmade glass.
