Standard Print Sizes

Requests for sizes other than this will also be entertained and customized as per client requirements. Prints can also be unframed or unmounted.

Frame Specifications & Sizes

The standard issue frames will be 1” thick fiber brown wood grain. They will also include an imported mount whose thickness will vary from 1” to 2” as per the size of the print and the frame. All materials used in framing will be acid-free so as to ensure the long life of the prints.

Packaging, Transport & Delivery

Specialized personnel will ensure that the digital files are safely transported to the printer and the subsequent prints be safely taken to the frame maker. Extreme care will be taken during the printing stage to ensure that the final result of the print matches that of the original image.

Courier or delivery of frames will be done by a reputed courier company. An alliance will be made with them to ensure the best rates on regular deliveries of fine art work.

Watermarking Images

All images that are uploaded to the website will be watermarked with the Inaya Art logo.
