What are the specific details of the paper quality?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) archival-grade paper. It is natural white, matte, and uncoated, measuring 0.29 mm in thickness. This heavy-weight paper is ideal for fine art, providing a tactile, museum-quality finish that resists aging.

How is the artwork protected during shipping?
Each framed print is protected by shatterproof, transparent plexiglass. This provides the clarity of glass without the risk of breakage, ensuring your Claude Monet masterpiece arrives in pristine condition regardless of its destination.
Is the materials used for this print sustainable?
Absolutely. We use FSC-certified paper and responsibly sourced wood for our frames. RedKalion is committed to providing premium art while maintaining ecological responsibility and supporting sustainable forestry practices globally.
