FRAMING

Are your frames good quality?

They sure are. We offer a bespoke custom framing service. We use gallery quality mouldings crafted from sustainably harvested wood and high spec framing glass. Each framed artwork comes complete with a custom framing finish - acid free backing board and framing tape applied on the back to protect against dust and condensation. We also use a high quality hanging mechanism. All our frames are assembled by hand, here in New Zealand by our team of master framers and made to order. Our frames exude quality and craftsmanship and will last a lifetime.

Who frames the art?

Your art print will be framed by our in house team of master framers using gallery quality materials. Our framers have a wealth of experience and are true artisans who take great pride in their work. 

Do you frame using glass?

We use scratch resistant clear float framing glass. This is a high performance glass which offers an extremely high level of clarity as well as UV protection to protect your art print.

Do you ever use acrylic?

Yes. We use acrylic on A0 size framed artworks as well as other extra large sizes. 

Do you ship framed art worldwide?

No sorry. We only ship framed artwork to New Zealand addresses. You are still welcome to purchase unframed art prints which we can ship worldwide. 

How expensive is your framing service?

The cost varies depending on the size of the print. Our custom framing service is generally around 30% cheaper than using your local high street framer. 

When will my framed art arrive?

If you are based in New Zealand you can expect to receive your order within 7 working days. If you have a rural delivery address delivery it may take up to 10 working days. 
 

How do you safely ship framed art?

We take as much care and pride in packaging the artwork for delivery as we do in producing it. Our packaging team are seasoned pros and know how to package to minimise the chance of breakage. Framed artworks are encased in several layers of bubble wrap before being placed in our purpose-built heavy duty cardboard boxes specifically designed to safeguard your artwork against damage while in transit. You will be impressed with the effort and care taken. 

What happens if my art arrives damaged?

In the unlikely event that your framed art arrives damaged we will replace it free of any additional charge.
