OUR MATERIALS

Canvas
We use the finest artists canvas and papers for all of the prints we produce. Our standard canvas is a 300gsm 100% cotton canvas that will result in a warm and pleasing finish. Our premium option is a 400gsm 100% cotton canvas and has a more heavily textured surface which gives the images a premium quality and feel. We can also print on Polycanvas which is a 220gsm weight and is a very white finish offering a sharp bright quality. This costs the same as the standard cotton canvas, but please email us if you would prefer this option.

Frames
Our Museum Quality Artists Stretcher Bars are made of the finest quality kiln dried fir wood, which has the advantage of being very light, yet extremely hard wearing and not susceptible to warping. Our standard frame is 1½" (38mm) and also incorporates ‘wedges’ which are placed in each corner and allow the canvas to be stretched extremely tightly over the frame. It also allows the canvas to be restretched over time if needed. Our premium stretcher bars are chunky at 44mm deep and made from European pine featuring extra-strong laminated wood construction to minimize warping.

Lifetime Quality Guarantee
We use only the finest possible canvas, ink and stretcher bars, and because we don't make any compromises, we can offer you a lifetime guarantee on all our products. We guarantee that:
- the inks on the canvas print will not fade
- the canvas will not sag or need restretching
- the frame will stay strong

Our Inks and Printing Process
The printing process we utilise is a technologically advanced 12 Colour HP Vivera pigment based system. This has a guaranteed colour fastness (according to HP data) of 200 years. The 12 colour process results in a truly amazing colour reproduction and fabulous neutral and true black and white prints.

Hanging Kits
Although our canvas prints are extremely easy to hang by simply resting the frames on two screws or nails, we include patented CWH Hangers for Canvas Art with every print. The unique design incorporates a cut-out which allows the print to be hung on a standard 2 pin picture hook (also supplied). Using these hangers ensures that the finished print is ‘pulled’ flush to the wall and results in a very secure fixing with minimum fuss.

Payment
Payment for your orders is made by clicking on the checkout button once you have finished selecting your products. This will take you to the secure Paypal site where you can pay either using an existing Paypal account or, if you prefer, by using a credit or debit card.

Alternatively, you can pay by cheque, however this will need to clear before we can process your order and will therefore take longer.
