Shipping

Delivery is made via the postman or parcel deliverer of bPost, DPD, PostNL or Mondial Relay. If the parcel delivery driver offers it, you also have the choice of a pick-up point. Generally, delivery will be the second following working day between 9:00 and 18:00 if you are ordering from a neighbouring country of Belgium.

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the time of delivery.

If in doubt, do not hesitate to contact us first!

Packaging

IMPORTANT: Regarding shipping costs: these are calculated by default based on the (packed) weight of one item. When ordering multiple items, it may happen that the automatically calculated shipping costs are calculated too high (e.g. 4 plates can usually be packed in the same box as 1 plate, but the calculation is based on 4 separate boxes). Overcharged shipping costs will be returned by us.

Based on our experience, we strive to never ship more than max 10 to 15 kg per box. If you want to order multiple items and exceed this weight, that is not a problem, but we will have to divide your order over multiple packages. In that case, it is advisable to contact us first so that we can determine the correct shipping costs.

The option to choose shipping is automatically disabled once the total weight of the items exceeds 15 kg. In that case, you can only choose to collect via the webshop. We can change this later to shipping once it is clear whether one or more packages need to be sent. The (additional) shipping costs will then be charged afterwards.

Royal Sphinx was a Dutch company in Maastricht that initially produced mainly pottery and later sanitary ware, among other things. It was a Dutch company founded by Petrus Regout in Maastricht in 1834. It was the first large-scale mechanized factory in the Netherlands and is considered the cradle of the industrial revolution in the Netherlands.

At Regout's death in 1878, it employed about 2,500 workers. The company was initially known as a producer of cut crystal, glassware, crockery and other household pottery; later mainly tiles and sanitary ware, such as sinks and toilet bowls. After the death of the founder (1878), the company was known as C.V. Petrus Regout & Co., and after the death of Pierre Regout from January 1, 1898, as N.V. Kristal-, Glas- en Aardewerkfabrieken De Sphinx, v/h Petrus Regout en Co., referred to simply as "The Sphinx" in the walk.

The factory ceased to exist in 2009, although the "Sphinx" brand name has continued to be held by Switzerland's Geberit through 2019. Sphinx Tiles, which split off in 1997, has also no longer had production facilities in Maastricht since 2008. The Sphinx and the closely associated Regout family have left many traces in Maastricht and the surrounding area.
