What is the quality of the paper used for the Baptistry print?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white, uncoated museum-quality paper. This archival-grade material is 0.29 mm thick, ensuring a premium feel and exceptional resistance to aging and yellowing.

The frame is made from FSC-certified oak and ash wood with a black finish. It features a 20mm (0.79") width and thickness, providing a more robust and sophisticated profile than standard 14mm frames.
Is the artwork protected from environmental damage?
Yes, each print is shielded by high-quality, shatterproof plexiglass. This provides the clarity of glass while ensuring the artwork remains safe and protected from dust and physical impact during display.

Every framed art print is carefully packaged in specialized protective materials to ensure it arrives in pristine condition. A hanging kit is included, making the artwork ready to hang immediately upon arrival.
