Gloss archival giclee prints, hand printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Silk Baryta X paper. The paper produces a heavyweight print and ensures an extremely long life, when combined with our archival inks.

The paper is silky gloss, with a little brightening of the whites to ultimately produce a print on paper that is very similar to traditional photo paper. It has a good water resistance, and the inks provide abrasion resistance. The underlying structure ensures that, despite its gloss finish, reflections are minimised.

With their high quality and long-lasting durability, you can trust that your print will be preserved for years to come. These prints have been scientifically proven to last for over 200 years without fading or losing their original colours. 

Choose gloss prints if you prefer a glossy appearance to your photography. These are wonderful heavyweight images and especially suit photographs with deep blacks, high sharpness requirements or high contrast.

When sending your images, please leave a note at checkout if you would like us to prepare your image for printing (e.g. convert a colour image to black and white, with or without borders, or make any adjustments). If you have no instructions, and are happy with your image, then we will inspect it, and prepare it for print 'as is'.

If you prefer an alternative Hahnemuhle paper, please feel free to get in touch, as we stock a large number of alternative papers.

Printing Questions

Can you explain the border options?

Borders on your print will largely depend on whether you wish your image to be cropped to fit the paper, or do you want borders surrounding your uncropped image. The options are:

1.Full Image with Borders - your photograph will not be cropped, and is printed as large as possible on the paper, which may leave larger borders either at the top/bottom or sides (this is the default option).

2. No Borders - your photo may have to be cropped a little to ensure there are no borders on your size of paper. Ideally, if you can crop your image before uploading it, we can prevent this.

3.Equal Borders on print - for this option, you want equal borders on each side, and your image needs to fit the remaining area - we may need to crop your image to achieve this.

What file formats do you prefer?

  • Either JPEG (at high quality) or TIFF.
  • Colour profiles: AdobeRGB, or sRGB.
  • Ideally At 300ppi (pixels per inch/dots per inch)

How large should my file be?

In all cases, please send the largest file you have. This helps not just with printing, but with any retouching that you require. If you are confident editing images, it can help to crop them to the correct size for printing (but don't worry too much).

Can you provide customs sizes?

Yes. Please let us know the size you require and we can send you a price for payment online.

What is a gicleé print?

Gicleé prints are premium quality photographic prints, produced to the highest standards expected by photographers, collectors and galleries, using pigment inks and archival papers.

How long is printing and despatch?

Turnaround is typically a couple of days, as all prints are produced after manually checking and preparing images. You should receive them several days after that.

Will my print last a lifetime?

When using our archival pigment inks, and gallery certified papers, you can expect 200+ years before any fading takes place, if stored correctly.

Do you frame prints?

As experts in printing, we concentrate on producing perfect prints. As such, we don't presently offer a framing service.
