Victorian Emporium offers outstanding…

Victorian Emporium offers outstanding products, and their service is truly exceptional. We've had the pleasure of collaborating with VE on several projects, and Emma has been incredibly helpful throughout the process—always quick to respond, informative, and ready to assist. The mouldings and panels we've ordered are of excellent quality, and we couldn't be happier with them. I highly recommend Victorian Emporium, and we're definitely looking forward to working with them again in the future.

Super happy customer :-)

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the Victorian emporium for purchasing the the finishing touches for your projects, the quality of the products is excellent. Emma was also really helpful when confirming the availability of stock and co-ordinated the despatch date for me so I could guarantee I would be on site for the delivery.

Excellent communication & service

We had excellent communication with Emma during the ordering process, delivery tracking and dealing with follow-up issues.
What a difference to be in contact with someone who cares rather than deal with a mindless Chatbot.

Great communication, gorgeous product!

Wow, I just received my lampshade, and it is gorgeous! You can tell that it was handmade, and I even received a personal note in the package. Emma is fabulous at communicating and sending tracking information—that was really important to me because it was a higher-cost purchase (at least for me) AND this was an international order. Yes, you may have to wait a bit because it's custom-made, but it is so worth it!

‘I am extremely satisfied with the reliability of The Victorian Emporium both in terms of the ease of ordering and the delivery time.
Emme Page is very kind and available and kept in touch with me throughout the delivery of the 6 Drayton lanterns to Brussels.

I would not hesitate to use The Victorian Emporium again in the future if I needed lanterns for my villa in Spain and I would highly recommend them.

Yours sincerely

Great service and great products

Great service from Emma. The delivery company had an accident with part of the order (timber) and Emma was very quick to send replacements for the damaged parts. Great service. Well done and thanks.

The worst customer service I’ve ever…

The worst customer service I’ve ever encountered. My order 46906/139698 stated 2 days delivery time, for which I paid £10 for a small item. I thought it was expensive, but I paid for the speedy delivery. When 5 days later I rang to enquire about my order I was told the warehouse hadn’t dispatched it, but it would be chased. When I asked why I paid £10 in that situation, the operator got unbelievably almost shouty with me and cancelled my order completely. The only person raising the voice during the call was the operator and I was merely enquiring whether I was due a difference for the shipping fee from 2 days to a week. Not a word of excuse either. Would never use again.

HI Alina sorry to hear you have had a negative experience. Our standard delivery charge for these items is £10 and is clearly stated at the point of order. We have refunded your order as you were not happy and wish you luck with your renovation

Excessive delivery charges

The delivery charge of £12.00 is far too excessive for small item.

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate that the carriage cost was clearly displayed when I placed the order, my point was that for one small cupboard knob costing bout £9.00 a carriage charge of £12.00 was excessive. I had no choice but to order it from yourselves because you were the only supplier that had the item in brass, everywhere else I looked it was in chrome only. In any event a few days later you refunded my money because it was not available in brass after all.

Excellent customer service

I ordered a brass lock and handles which on arrival had been badly damaged in the post. I emailed Emma for replacement advice and received a prompt reply, apology and assurance I would receive a replacement the following day.
The following morning the replacement arrived as promised. What a pleasant surprise to deal with a company that looks after its customers.
