Mission Statement
We are a Cape Town based company with strong links to the Isle of Wight, hence our UK website! Our aim is to produce the finest quality giclee archival prints from our fabulous range of Original Art work.
We’ve sourced only the very best South African artists covering a range of styles to suit different tastes.
We stand for Quality and Service and this is at the heart of everything we do. Our giclee archival prints are at the cutting edge of technology and all prints come certificated, signed, editioned and titled by the original artist. We wish to make Art more affordable by offering giclee archivalprints to you at a fraction of the cost of the original artwork.
The Process
The original paintings are carefully photographed to achieve the high resolution files necessary for quality reproductions. We use high end digital cameras and medium format cameras to produce the necessary images. Careful scanning from the original negatives reproduces subtle tones and details of the original artwork.
The resultant prints are produced using cutting edge wide format printing technology and are almost indistinguishable from the original art works. By using a particular combination of pigment inks and specially coated cotton papers and canvasses our prints can claim an archival rating of between 80 and 100 years (according to recognised authorities of print longevity, Wilhelm Imaging Research)
The Quality
Our giclee canvas prints are printed on 100% pure cotton artist canvas (340gms) and is ideal for the reproduction of these fabulous works of art giving added value to the artwork. All giclee paper prints are printed on sophisticated Hahnemule Archival Paper (310gms) which enhances colour fidelity and luminosity.
Each print is produced under strict quality control and comes with a Holographic Watermarked Certificate of Authenticity. The certificate is signed, editioned and titled by the artist.

Framing
All our giclee prints are dispatched to you unframed unless and are rolled in a strong cardboard tube ready for stretching or framing.
All giclee canvas prints have a 50mm white border beyond the original image size which allows for easy stretching over a wooden stretcher frame. The artwork is ready to hang without the need for additional framing. You can of course chose your own colour border or specific requirements should you wish to have your canvas with a plain white border.
