Our fine art prints are high-quality prints made using a paper called Photo Rag. This 100% cotton rag fiber paper is known for its exceptional image sharpness, rich colors, and high level of detail, making it a popular choice for professional photographers and artists. Photo rag paper is our clear recommendation for a fine art paper print.

Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years.

For quick and easy installation all Wall Art, including framed prints, canvas prints and metal prints are supplied with a ready to hang solution on the back. Generally, saw tooth hangers are applied as they allow wall art to hang flush against the wall. The serrated edge of the hanger prevents the frame from shifting or tilting when hung.

Posters can easily be removed by tapping tubes gently on a hard surface which will drop them down to one end. When done, insert two fingers inside, open them out and gently twist clockwise or anti-clockwise to draw the posters inwards, making them smaller, then gently pull to remove. When removing posters from tubes, it is important to be gentle and avoid any sharp objects that could potentially damage the poster. Additionally, make sure to handle posters with clean hands or wear gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints or other marks on the print.

All of our products are custom made to order, which means you are buying a bespoke product and should therefore never run out of stock.

This is likely due to the original image having a different shape (aspect ratio) than the paper or product it is printed on. To accommodate this difference, we can either print the entire image with margins, or crop the image to fill the paper with no margins. During the ordering process, we offer the choice of how you would like your image printed if applicable. Some of our products can accommodate a range of shapes, so this choice may not be necessary for those products.

Yes, we use archival quality photo paper photographic paper for vivid reproduction. Prints are an accurate representations of the original artwork, which is preserved for artistic character and authenticity. We guarantee they match the previews shown on our web site

Photographic prints range in size from 6x4" (15x10cm) to 60x40" (152x102cm). Poster prints are an enlarged version of photographic prints that come in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 & A4). Because they are both printed on high quality paper, either print is of excellent quality, so which one you choose really depends on your personal preference and budget. Both prints are suitable for framing and are guaranteed to correspond to the previews displayed on our website, making them an accurate representation of the original artwork.

We print on both sides of photo mugs wherever possible, but for wider images, we size them to wrap around the mug for the largest possible image. Our photo mugs are top-rack dishwasher safe.

Yes, to compensate for lips of frames, the option to add a small gap of approximately 4mm (may vary due to production tolerances) is offered on most prints. To add a border, tick the "add margin" box when customizing your product. The paper size will not change but a border ensures less of the image is under the lip of the edge of a frame.

To ensure parts of the image are not cut off, we do not wrap the image on our framed canvas products. Wrapping takes up a lot of the image for the sides. As we source images from different libraries, it is not possible to guarantee that the wrapping will not result in the essential parts of the image being on the edges rather than the front. To ensure we supply a quality canvas print we offer color matched, black or white sides so that you can choose one that best suits your taste.

Watermarks that may appear on the website previews are not included in our products, which are produced from much higher quality images. The watermarks are added to images on the web site to protect them from being reproduced without permission.

Where available, the colorized options can be selected in the Choose Your Product Section.
