FAQ

“Giclée” refers to a high standard of printing where the art prints are produced using pigment based inks and archival, cotton rag paper. Prints of this high quality will typically last for at least 25 years without fading or yellowing. Due to the cotton rag nature of the paper it is not unusual to see small white dots on the prints. The white dots are usually only noticeable on very close inspection, and are generally not noticeable when framed behind glass and hung. The colours on our prints are surprisingly vibrant and we have received a huge amount of praise for the quality of the prints. It took us nearly a year to find the printer we wanted to work with and we are incredibly proud of the results.

You do need to handle any prints you purchase carefully. Giclée prints are printed with a very fine spray of ink over the paper surface, so throughout the framing process or when unpacking your prints do not touch the surface of the print at all. You could easily scratch or scuff the design. We cannot be held responsible for any damage done to prints once they are in your care.

The A series of paper sizes is an international standard, used widely in the UK, Europe and many other countries internationally.

You can find more information about this on our print sizes page.

Please contact us with your location so we can give you a quote for the print and postage costs.
