Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is giclée Fine Art print?
Giclée Fine Art prints use pigment based, archival quality ink and are manufactured on advanced inkjet printers. The printing process uses up to 12 individual colors, producing outstanding quality reproductions. The archival inks used on Giclée printers won’t fade when displayed in normal conditions indoors, retaining their color brilliance for a lifetime. Giclée prints are the preferred choice for high-end buyers and collectors.
How should I take care of my Giclée prints?
Giclée prints have a delicate surface, so extra care is recommended when handling. It’s best to use them framed behind glass. Glare free museum glass is highly recommended for best results.
