From Oslo to You—It Deserves a Stretch.
If your artwork arrives in a tube, give it a moment to relax.
Unroll it carefully and let it rest on a flat surface in its original glassine wrap. After a long trip from Oslo, it deserves a little stretch—this will make framing easier.
For our Limited Edition originals, we recommend heading straight to a trusted local framer to get the perfect fit.
More Than Just a Pretty Edge.
The white border around your artwork isn’t just for looks.It’s there to protect your piece during handling and adds that extra touch of design we know you’ll appreciate. Just a reminder—wash your hands before handling it. Oils and dirt aren’t your artwork’s friends, so let’s keep it pristine.
A Little Sun is Good. Too Much? Not So Much.
Just like your skin, your artwork has a delicate relationship with the sun.A little sunlight can make those colors pop, but too much direct exposure can cause fading. Find a spot with good light—just avoid long stretches in direct sunlight. For maximum protection, consider UV-filtering glass. Trust us, your artwork will thank you.
The Safety Blanket
After hours of research, we nailed the perfect material to protect your artwork. Glassine paper is like the bodyguard you didn’t know your art needed—shielding it from scratches, yellowing, and humidity. It’s acid-free, smooth to the touch, and does the job perfectly... as long as you keep it dry. We’ve personally tested that part so you don’t have to.
