order faqs shipping packaging

Print Orders/Shipping || Prints are packaged and shipped as carefully as possible to ensure they arrive safely. Dependent upon the size, larger prints often need mailing tubes for packaging and shipping, rather than a flat, rigid mailer. If you are not familiar with working with rolled prints, taking it directly to a professional framer is the best advice as they will handle all the steps for you.

Large Prints || If you plan to frame a print yourself, when you receive your shipping tube package and open it, gently unroll the print. Allow it to relax and uncurl on a clean, dry flat surface. If necessary, place heavy books at the corners to help the process along. Make sure that the packaging or fresh parchment paper protects the surface of the print (front and back), before doing so. Usually a print will relax and lay flat for framing within 24-48 hours.
