Shipping & Delivery

Shipping fee is 8% of the order total (excluding tax) plus $8.00. This excludes furniture, rugs, etc.

We ship purchases via FedEx. Please allow 6 - 8 business days from the date of confirmation of receipt of your order for delivery of in-stock items. In case the item is out of stock or if there is any other cause of delay we will notify you by e-mail, providing you with an estimated delivery time.

In order to avoid confusion, please note the following:

  • We DO NOT ship on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and orders placed after 3:00 pm on Friday will not be processed and shipped until the following Tuesday.
  • Hawaii, Alaska & International Shipments: We are pleased to ship internationally and the shipping charges are determined on an individual basis. Since shipping costs vary based on location, we request that before placing the order, call 1-757-422-3313 to receive an estimate shipping cost to confirm you do indeed want to proceed with the order. Once the item has been packaged and shipped, another transaction will be placed on your credit card with the exact amount of the shipping and an e-mail will be sent informing you this along with the actual cost of shipping.
  • Any customs or duty charges are the responsibility of purchaser and/or recipient.

Express Shipping
If you need express shipping, please call 1-757-422-3313 to request a rush order. At this time, we will give you an estimated price for One Day Express and Two Day Express and ask if you would still like to proceed. The orders must also be placed before 1pm (EST) for next day shipping. Once the item has been packaged and shipped, another transaction will be placed on your credit card with the exact amount of the express shipping and an e-mail will be sent informing you of this transaction along with the actual cost of shipping.

Delivery Surcharges ($)
Because furniture, rugs and other large items are bulky and heavy, our cost to ship them is higher than for other items. Therefore, these large items have a delivery surcharge; we will e-mail you informing you of this extra charge.

Merchandise Pricing & Availability

We hope you will understand that with all the efforts we make to have our items correctly priced and have their stock quantity up-to-date, occasionally this information may be incorrect.

If the stock quantity is mismarked and we do not have the item in-stock, we will notify you of this. At this point, you can choose to keep or cancel the order. If you choose to keep the order please be aware that it usually takes anywhere from 4-6 weeks to receive.

If a product's price is higher than our website's stated price (aka our website has the wrong price for an item), we will cancel your order and notify you of this cancellation. You are more than welcome to purchase the item again at the correct price.

As shown on the site, an out-of-stock item can be ordered and is estimated to take 4-6 weeks to receive. Please note that there are a handful of brands that we do not keep in-stock due to the large amount of inventory. These brands will take extra time to ship out and the stock shown for these brands does not reflect our in-store stock but rather their availability.

We reserve the right to cancel any order we receive at our discretion. The full amount charged will be credited back to your account.

About The Globe

About Us The Globe is a retail store located at the Hilltop North Shopping Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The original site opened at the Oceanfront in June, 2005 with an expansion that doubled the store’s size in 2008 and moved to its newest location in April, 2017. It is a family owned business where the owners are present the majority of the time. Our core philosophy centers on beauty with quality in products that provide a fair and lasting value. Value is often used in the context of “bargain” but should actually be defined by the use and lasting qualities of meticulous craftsmanship and artistry in relation to what is paid. Our products are not mass produced products that end up in a landfill within a season. Rather, they are designed, crafted and often founded on generations of skilled artisans who value the detail and balance of fine glass blowing, linens, ceramics, fragrance, and such. You will find the majority of our products to be American and European made, although certainly not exclusively. We seek companies that not only provide exquisite products but do so without child labor and in an environmentally appropriate way. The Globe really is Hampton Roads' Finest Bridal Registry and Gift Registry. We are proud to have been honored as the leading Juliska Signature Partner Store in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Globe has been recognized by Juliska as one of their top 100 stores worldwide. According to the manufacturer, the Juliska Signature Partners are defined as being committed to creating inspiring displays, training highly knowledgeable staff, showcasing a wide assortment, and carrying abundant Juliska stock. We carry the full Juliska line and have most items in stock including ceramic, lighting, flatware, and glassware. Our store has an exquisite showroom about two miles from the Virginia Beach Oceanfront featuring the Juliska offerings as well as over 100 different place setting patterns from other high quality vendors including Vietri,Anna Weatherley, Herend, Raynaud, Richard Ginori 1735, Mottahedeh, Michael Aram, Capdeco, Moser, Varga, Waterford, Rogaska, William Yeoward, Royal Crown Derby, Simon Pearce, Match, Gien, Arte Italica, J.L. Coquet, and more. All items are first quality with no factory seconds. We have always been Tax-Free for all orders outside of Virginia. We also have an online gift and wedding registry service with beautiful, complimentary gift wrap. Our on-line store is an extension of our retail store. We are always happy to assist you in the store or over the phone. You may email us. Your feedback and suggestions are valued.
