FINE ART GICLÉE PRINTS

Our fine art giclée* prints are made with acid-free papers and archival pigment inks, creating prints with certified permanence ratings of more than 100 years, that are perfect for your photographs and art reproductions.​

We have five paper types: Archival Matte, Photo Rag, Textured Watercolor, Photo Luster, and Baryta.​

.

Archival Matte Paper

Archival Matte Paper is a smooth, neutral white paper with a matte finish that is an ideal choice for high-quality fine art, high-resolution photography, and open-edition décor. It is FSC-certified and made from 100% acid-free alpha-cellulose fibers.

Photo Rag Paper

Photo Rag Paper is a versatile, soft white paper for reproducing paintings, drawings, and photographic wall art. The 25/75 cotton, alpha-cellulose fiber blend offers a slight texture resembling the feel of etching papers used with intaglio printmaking presses. It is a Fine Art Trade Guild certified paper that supports vivid colors, rich blacks, and sharp detail.

Textured Watercolor Paper

Textured Watercolor is a bright white, acid-free paper made from 100% cotton fibers. It has a matte finish and a moderate texture reminiscent of watercolor papers which is perfect for artists and photographers looking for prints with a wide color gamut and dense blacks.

Photo Luster Paper

Premium Photographic Luster Paper is a resin coated paper similar to silver halide lab prints traditionally used by wedding, portrait, and school photographers. It delivers deep blacks, high contrast detail, and saturated color with a glare-reducing luster finish.

Baryta Photographique

Baryta Paper

Baryta Photographique is ideal for wide-format photographic prints offering the look and feel of classic darkroom papers. It is a 100% acid-free alpha-cellulose paper producing exceptional contrast, detail, depth, and clarity in photographic and fine art prints, whether in color or in black and white. It consists of an alpha-cellulose, acid-free pure white paper with the same barium sulphate coating as for traditional silver halide papers, and a premium inkjet colour receiver layer. Baryta’s whiteness comes from a barium sulfate variant called blanc-fixe, meaning ‘permanent white.’

*Giclée (pronounced zshee-klay): a technology for fine art or photograph reproduction using a high-quality inkjet printer to make individual copies. It is often used by artists, galleries, museums, and print shops for their high quality printing. Today’s giclée can be printed on everything from paper to canvas to acrylic.
