Dubrovnik has a unique characteristic that dictates all furniture planning: no delivery vans are allowed into the Old Town within the walls. Anything that needs to go in must be carried through a gate and up stairs. This is not a minor detail; it is the first question to consider before any order.
What two people can carry
Practically, this means that each piece should be transportable by two people through narrow alleys and up stairs. A solid stone table in one piece is often out of the question, but a frame with a separate top is not. Modular sofas arrive in sections, large sofas rarely in one piece. If you live outside the walls, in Ploče or Lapad, you do not have this restriction and can plan normally.
Stone, Salt, and Sun
The houses are made of light limestone, as are the floors. This results in cool, bright rooms that lack warm materials. Travertine and brass bring this warmth back without clashing with the surroundings. Rugs are almost a necessity on stone floors, otherwise every room will echo.
Terrace with a View
Most properties have a terrace, often small and with a view. Here, the individual piece matters more than the quantity: two chairs, a side table, wind protection provided by planters. Anything lightweight will be blown away by the Bura wind.
Shipping to Dubrovnik
We deliver to Dubrovnik. The price is based on the shipping weight, which for furniture is calculated from dimensions and packaging. Zone: EU. The prices stated are gross prices.
| Shipment | Shipping Costs |

Freight forwarding goods are delivered curbside. This means: to the curb in front of the address, not into the apartment or the designated room. If you require delivery to an upper floor, please arrange it locally; this page explains what to consider.
The complete table with all weight categories can be found under Shipping and Delivery, and the timeframes under Delivery Time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is furniture delivered to the Old Town of Dubrovnik?
On foot. There is no vehicle access within the walls; everything is carried through the gates and up stairs. Each piece should be portable by two people.
What kind of furniture suits a stone house on the Adriatic?
Warm materials to counterbalance the light limestone, such as travertine and brass, along with rugs to prevent echoing on stone floors.
What should be considered on a terrace during Bura winds?
Weight. Lightweight furniture and loose decorations cannot withstand the strong downdraft. Heavy planters also serve as windbreaks.
