Print - Framed with Matting
The Distinguishing Features
This edition combines our museum-quality photographic print with a professionally hand crafted frame, arriving ready to hang and enjoy from the moment it reaches your home.
Designed to complement both contemporary and traditional interiors, the framed presentation elevates the artwork while providing a timeless gallery-inspired finish.
The Impact of Matting
Each framed print includes a carefully selected mat board, creating a clean border between the artwork and the frame. This additional space draws the viewer's eye towards the image, enhancing its visual presence and allowing the photograph to stand out more prominently on the wall.
We use a premium textured, bright white matte board that adds depth, contrast, and a refined finishing touch to the overall presentation.
Built for Longevity
To protect your artwork, every framed print is glazed with UV-resistant acrylic rather than traditional glass. This lightweight, durable material helps shield the print from harmful ultraviolet light, reducing fading and preserving colour accuracy over time.
Combined with archival-quality printing materials, this protection helps ensure your artwork remains vibrant and beautiful for generations.
Hand-Finished Craftsmanship
Every frame is assembled and finished by hand, ensuring a level of quality and attention to detail that reflects the artwork it surrounds. The craftsmanship involved is comparable to the standard you would expect from a professional custom framing service.
To create a harmonious presentation, each frame colour has been carefully selected to complement the photograph. The frames themselves are crafted from responsibly sourced wood, combining premium aesthetics with a commitment to sustainability.
The Printing Surface
This product is printed on a velvety matte surface called Hahnemühle German Etching Paper which is specifically designed for fine art applications. It’s made from 100% alpha cellulose which is characterised by its extraordinary velvety tactile feel and its clearly defined, fine felt structure.
The paper is coated with a premium matt inkjet coating, improving the subsequent printing process. This creates outstanding print results with excellent colour reproduction and detail, deep blacks and optimum contrasts. The paper has a warm white hue, providing the perfect surface for producing fine art photography.
This vegan certified paper is acid and lignin free. The paper is compliant with ISO 9706, conforming to museum quality, ensuring the highest age resistance.
Basically, this is some very, very fancy paper.
The Environment & Product
Our photographic prints are produced using high-quality water-based inks, reducing the use of harsh chemicals while delivering exceptional colour accuracy and longevity.
To minimise transportation emissions, orders are fulfilled through a network of local production partners. This helps reduce shipping distances and lowers the overall carbon footprint of each order.
The glass used is acrylic glass, offering a durable alternative to traditional glass. The increased resistance to breakage helps reduce damage during transit, minimising replacements, redeliveries, and the associated environmental impact.
The Packaging
Every panel is carefully protected using packaging made from recycled materials. The artwork is wrapped in protective film and cushioning before being secured inside a rigid, double-walled corrugated cardboard box.
This packaging approach helps ensure your photography arrives safely while supporting our commitment to reducing waste and using more sustainable materials.
The Look
The Inks & Printing Technology
Every print is produced using the Giclée printing process, the industry standard for fine art reproduction. Originally developed for artists, galleries, and museums, Giclée printing is renowned for its exceptional detail, colour accuracy, and archival longevity. This premium printing method captures the subtle tones, textures, and nuances of each image, ensuring a result that faithfully reflects the original artwork.
The Sustainable, High-Performance Inks
We use advanced water-based inks throughout our entire print collection. These inks deliver outstanding colour depth, vibrancy, and precision while providing a more environmentally responsible alternative to traditional solvent-based inks. Unlike solvent-based inks, which can release hazardous pollutants, water-based inks are non-toxic, non-hazardous, and odourless, with up to 70% of their formulation consisting of water.
The Hand Crafting & Delivery
Each print is individually produced to order and undergoes a meticulous printing and quality control process to ensure it meets our exacting standards. Production typically takes up to three working days allowing sufficient time for printing, mounting, finishing, and inspection.
Once approved, your artwork is carefully packaged and dispatched, ready to be displayed and enjoyed for years to come.
