I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Terms and description of Materials used to make your print.
Giclée Printing
*What is Giclée printing and why do we use it.?
Giclée in French means 'to spray'.
It was a term coined in the 1970s to find a word that reflected high-end quality archival printing, used by Artists to produce small amounts of prints from their original work.
This separated them from the then mass produced 4 colour printing which left a very flat image.
Giclée printing uses sprays to achieve a likeness that is as close to the original art work as it is possible to get. It achieves wonderful clarity and vigour, rather than the flat toneless old printing method.
* Pigment Inks?
Pigment inks are made using the true color pigment. We use pigment inks especially the 9 color combination to give the best depth and vibrancy of any inks that are available today.
* Excellent Materials - guaranteed.
We could skimp on paper and cheap ink, and bring our price down by a dollar or two.
You will be pleased that we chose not to.
The paper we use for your print is 100% Cotton, Hot pressed - Acid Free - Archival quality Watercolour paper
We use 280 grams weight an excellent heavyweight paper.
* What is Museum Quality Archival Paper.?
Archival paper is made from 100% cotton fibers which contain no acid residue, which gradually over time turns paper brown. Some people call this patina or ageing, which of course is partly to blame for the brown markings.
When cheap paper is produced from mixed materials including wood pulp etc, then it will start to deteriorate over a fairly short period of time.
The acid in the wood pulp remains in cheap paper
We want you to have your print on the wall looking just as good for the future
