🔔 NOTICE (Important Shipping Update for U.S. Buyers )

As of October 17, 2025, DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) has become mandatory for all international eBay shipments. This change follows the removal of the U.S. de minimis rule, which previously allowed low-value imports (under USD 800) to enter duty-free.

Under the new DDP system, the seller is responsible for pre-paying all import duties and customs clearance fees on behalf of the buyer, ensuring faster and smoother delivery. Buyers no longer need to pay customs charges upon arrival. However, state sales tax and VAT (if applicable) will continue to be collected automatically by eBay at checkout.

Please note that shipping rates may appear slightly higher than before because they now include the import duty and related processing costs.

Vintage Maori Hand-Carved Wooden Tray – New Zealand Indigenous Craft

This unique wooden tray was handcrafted by Maori artisans in New Zealand, celebrated for their exceptional carving traditions and deep cultural heritage.

The tray features beautifully carved handles, a warm natural wood grain, and elegant curves that highlight the artisan’s skill. It serves not only as a functional item but also as a piece of cultural art, making it ideal for display in homes, offices, or personal collections.
