framing the silk prints? 

When making your choice on the prints there are different options.

No frame: With no frame the silk print comes alone, it will have a seam along the top and bottom which can be used to instal with metal rods. Most simple hanging method. It will NOT come mounted on a stretcher.

Brown Floating Frame: Print will come in a brown floating frame, mounted on a stretcher, ready to be hung.

White Floating Frame: Print will come in a white floating frame, mounted on a stretcher, ready to be hung.

What is a floating frame?

Floating frames create the effect that the artwork is floating. In this case the floating frames will be a frame around the silk piece and the silks have the effect that they are floating.

All prints will be stretched around a wood frame which is then installed into the floating frame.

measurements for frame

These prints all have specific measurements so I collaborate with a great framers with friendly prices and they build a floating frame for the specific measurements of the print.

There are 2 options.

Purchase the print without a frame: Make the purchase without a frame and then take the print to a desired framer to bring your vision to life.

do you frame calico and paper prints?

No, calico and paper prints do not come framed.

How do calico prints come?

They come in 2 options:

Stretched: You can choose to have the calico print stretched on a wooden frame. This will give the print a 3-d effect and you can hang a stretched canvas with a nail.

You wouldn’t need to get it framed to hang it. You could later frame it in a floating frame if you liked.

Not Stretched: You would receive the print as a loose print. It would be 2-d and the edges would not be hemmed either. This is suitable if you would like to have it framed flat beneath glass.

How do paper prints come?

Paper prints will come well packaged in an transparent sleeve for protection. They will come in a format that is ready to take directly to the framers.

can you frame a paper or calico print?

Yes. This can be done but prior to making the purchase you would need to make contact to discuss specifications, what you would like and pricing adjustments would need to be made.
