Shipping porcelain sculptures requires meticulous packaging to prevent damage. The most effective solutions include using high-quality bubble wrap to cushion the sculpture, ensuring no part is left exposed. Wrap the sculpture in multiple layers, focusing on delicate areas like edges and protruding details.

For added protection, place the wrapped sculpture in a snug-fitting inner box lined with foam or packing peanuts. This inner box should then be placed inside a larger outer box, filled with additional cushioning material to absorb shocks during transit—a method known as double boxing.

Custom foam inserts are ideal for high-value pieces, as they provide a precise fit and superior shock absorption. Always use strong, corrugated cardboard boxes and seal them with heavy-duty packing tape. Label the package as "Fragile" and "Handle with Care" to alert handlers.

By combining these techniques, you can significantly reduce the risk of damage and ensure your porcelain sculptures arrive safely at their destination.
