Custom Framing, Paper & Glass
Framing & Glass
Frame, paper, glass.
White frame, archival paper, standard glass — included as standard (our 83 × 118 and 100 × 150 cm works use acrylic glazing and a deeper frame for safety and weight). Black, oak, 310gsm rag, museum glass, bespoke timbers — quoted on request. Every piece considered alongside the wall it's going to.
Frame
Standard, alternative, bespoke.
One finish included. The rest, on request.
Every Contemplo print is offered with a frame considered alongside the work — never an afterthought. White is the standard, included in the listed price. Black, natural oak, and bespoke finishes are quoted individually.
Standard Finish
- White — clean, contemporary, gallery-suited. Included as standard.
Alternative & Bespoke — On Request
- Black — restrained, architectural. The strongest contrast on the wall.
- Natural Oak — warm timber tone. Pairs easily with most interiors.
- Bespoke timbers, profiles, finishes — to specification.
Alternative finishes are quoted individually. Write to us for guidance on the pairing.
Paper
The substrate beneath the work.
Archival as standard. Rag on request.
Every Contemplo print is produced on premium archival paper, faithful to the original work. Archival satin is the standard, included in the listed price. For collectors and trade clients seeking a heavier, more textural finish — or a museum-grade specification — 310gsm cotton rag and equivalent archival papers are available on request.
Standard Paper
- Archival Satin — clean, balanced finish; rich tonal range. Included as standard.
Upgrade Options — On Request
- 310gsm Cotton Rag — heavyweight, museum-grade, subtly textured. Favoured for limited editions, signed pieces, and trade installations.
- Hahnemühle, Canson, and equivalent archival papers — matched to the work and the brief.
- Bespoke specifications — to brief, where the project calls for it.
Paper upgrades are quoted individually.
Glass
Four glass options.
Standard included. Upgrades on request.
Each framed piece is finished with one of four glass options. Standard glass is included in the listed price. Upgrades quoted on request.
