Please take note to the weather in your area during the winter holidays.  We are not responsible for postal delivery delays due to extreme weather conditions or delays in deliveries during their own busy holiday seasons.   International shipments, please allow 3-4 weeks depending on the country and their customs regulations which can cause delays.  A tracking number of your package will be e mailed to you once your package is processed.  You may refer to your tracking number at any time to easily find out the whereabouts of your package and to get a better idea as to when you will receive your purchase.  

Can you ship to another address if I am purchasing as a gift?

Absolutely! Please provide us with your billing address, and the name and address to where it is to be shipped during check out.  Please inform us that it is a gift, and we will not include the invoice.

Can you change the name on the teddy bear's sweater to a custom name?

Unfortunately, no. Giovanni and Giuliana are the names of the characters.  After the greeting, they say, "Mi chiamo Giovanni..." (My name is Giovanni), and "Mi chiamo Giuliana..."(My name is Giuliana)  The greetings cannot be changed.

Where is Giovanni, Giuliana and Dominick the Donkey manufactured?

Our plush toys are designed in the USA, by Isabella Centofanti, an Italian-American, and manufactured in China.  They are novelty items priced reasonably for all to enjoy.  The bears' recorded voices are native Italian speakers.
