What is Giclée?
Giclée, pronounced "zhee-CLAY," is a French term that means "spray of ink." Giclée prints are imaged on a high resolution device that sprays specialty inks at millions of drops per second onto a substrate, creating a continuous tone art print.

Our Guarantee
Each giclée print is signed, numbered and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, verifying the edition size and number. The giclée printmaking process we employ uses cutting edge technology to offer the richest depth of color conceivable in fine art reproductions today. This is achieved by applying Endurachrome inks* to 100% acid free paper/canvas thus making available to art collectors the highest quality product possible. This careful archival process guarantees your family to have a beautiful heirloom that will be treasured for generations to come.

All of our giclée prints are made in the United States on a Heidleberg archtype 400 giclee press. This press has passed the national certification for fine arts reproductions high qualifications standards.

*Endurachrome inks are the most archival, pigmented inks currently on the market according to various independent testing labs. Endurachrome inks hold up to the scrutiny of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art and are the only commercially reproduced prints allowed in their permanent collection.
