Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you might want to know before commissioning a piece, joining a class or visiting Svapas.
Custom Orders
Commissioning a piece
How do I commission handmade wall art?
Send a commission enquiry through our Contact page with the art form, the wall it's for, a rough size, your colours and your budget. Photos of the space help. Sneha shares a concept and quotation, and work begins only once you approve them.
How much does a custom piece cost?
It depends on the art form, size and detail. Our enquiry form offers budget ranges from under ₹5,000 to above ₹50,000, and Sneha quotes for your exact piece before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
How long does a custom order take?
It depends on the piece: its size, technique and current order queue. Sneha will confirm a realistic timeline when she shares your quotation.
Classes

Visiting
Seeing Svapas in person
Can I visit the Svapas studio?
Yes, by appointment. It's a working studio in Naranpura, Ahmedabad rather than a shop with opening hours, so send a message first and Sneha will share the address and a time that suits.
Where can I see Svapas' work in person?
At Svapas exhibitions in Ahmedabad, 5+ since 2014, and at the studio by appointment. Follow @svapas.art on Instagram to hear about the next exhibition.
Can I order a piece I saw in the portfolio?
Yes. Most pieces are made to order, so anything in the portfolio can be recreated or adapted to your size, colours and budget. Mention the category or send a screenshot when you enquire.
Delivery & Payment
Getting your piece to you
Do you deliver outside Ahmedabad?
Yes, pieces can be shipped across India. Delivery details and charges are confirmed for your specific order and location.
How do payments work?
Payment details are shared once your quotation is finalised: typically an advance to begin work, with the balance on completion.
Is packaging safe for fragile pieces?
Yes, mud mirror, glass and mosaic pieces are packed with extra care. See our Returns & Exchanges page for what to do if something arrives damaged.
