Giclee
Printing
Giclee (pronounced Zhee-Clay) is a high quality printing process in which a scan of the painting is printed onto premium cotton canvas or acid free fine art paper.
To ensure the best results, the painting is scanned on a flat-bed scanner to the same exacting standards as the Singapore national gallery.
Giclee printing on canvas
We use the best cotton canvas on the market which is the same canvas that leading art-galleries use to display their pictures.
Bright white in colour – for sharp definition and brilliant colours.
Archival rated to 75 years.
More textured than most canvases on the market.
Canvas printing
We use certified inks which are capable of producing a very wide spectrum of colours, hues and shades. The inks have been tested by the Wilhelm Institute, and are guaranteed to remain vibrant for at least 75 years.
Canvas framing
Framing is one of the most essential components of a canvas print. Our canvas prints are stretched onto a hand-cut, kiln dried Meranti timber frame.
The premium grade Meranti timber means the frames are resistant to warping and rot.
The frames sit flat against the wall and there is no visible frame line on the front of the canvas.
We use professional grade hooks and stainless steel wire to allow you to hang your print.
Canvas protection
Each canvas print is sprayed with a sealing layer of protective polyurethane which protects against bumps, scratches, water and fading. The laminate contains ultra-violet blockers that reflect harmful UV rays and an anti-fungal compound to restrict the growth of mould (essential for Singapore).
Giclee printing on fine art paper
Giclee prints on fine art paper are a great way to display and protect your images. Standard paper is made by crushing timber into pulp. Fine art paper is made from high grade cotton rag which has been rolled into an extremely high quality printing paper.
We use lightly textured (Watercolour 310gsm) paper that has been certified by the UK Fine Art Trade Guide. This paper combined with Lucia pro inks is certified to last 25 years without fading.

Acrylic Blocks
The unique acrylic block is proudly handcrafted in Singapore. The depth of the acrylic tile gives the image a three dimensional floating effect and can be used for interior design, a memento or a corporate gift. They are freestanding blocks so no hanging is required and can be placed inside or outside under a covered area.
