Your
valuable art collection, and documents need to be framed with
conservation materials, it is an important form of insurance.
When
framing art on paper, it is important not to restrict the
paper from breathing by sealing all the edges. Use 100% cotton
mat boards and attach art to the 100% cotton back board (foam
core or 4 ply mat) with acetate corners or mulberry paper
hinges.
Sunlight
is quick to fade artwork, use conservation glass (UV protected
glass) it is a little more in price, but it will save you in the
long run.
Conservation
mat boards come in a variety of textures and colours, making
preserving artwork fun.
The
Art Tree is committed to using high quality conservation
materials throughout your entire project. Call 403-247-3255 for an
