What is the historical significance of the Acanthus Embroidered Panel?
Designed by William Morris in 1890, the Acanthus pattern is a cornerstone of the Arts and Crafts Movement. It reflects Morris’s mastery of organic geometry and his desire to replace industrial uniformity with hand-crafted botanical beauty.
What are the specific paper and print specifications?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white, uncoated matte paper. This archival-grade, museum-quality paper is 0.29 mm thick, ensuring the print remains flat and vibrant without yellowing over time.
Is the frame made of real wood?
Yes, the frame is crafted from responsibly sourced oak and ash wood. It features a premium 20mm (0.79") profile, providing more durability and visual weight than standard 14mm frames.
Will my artwork arrive ready to hang?
Absolutely. Your William Morris print arrives fully assembled in its frame with a professional hanging kit included, allowing you to elevate your space the moment it arrives.
How is the print protected against fading and damage?
The print is made on archival paper and protected by shatterproof plexiglass. This ensures long-term longevity and safety, keeping the artwork pristine even in high-traffic areas.
Why was the Acanthus leaf so prominent in Morris’s work?
Morris was inspired by classical architecture and medieval manuscripts. The acanthus leaf allowed him to create complex, interlocking patterns that symbolized growth and the enduring power of nature.
How is the framed print protected during shipping?
Every RedKalion print is securely packaged using reinforced, sustainable materials to ensure the wooden frame and plexiglass arrive in perfect, gallery-ready condition.
