What is a giclée print?

 Giclée ( pronounced jhee-clay ) is the term coined for the latest generation of fine art reproduction. The term means “to spurt” in French and comes from the fact that a giclée printer is basically an inkjet printer taken to the extreme. Giclees are printed with a microscopic sized dot pattern allowing for virtual continuous tone printing. Using 10 different coloured inks we are able to capture a range of colours previously unheard of, resulting in the absolute highest quality print imaginable.

What is the difference between a limited edition and an open edition print?

 Limited editions suggest only a limited number of prints can be made available for purchase in the edition. For example, in a 25-print limited edition, once all 25 prints have sold, the prints will no longer be available. All prints are numbered (e.g. 1/25) and signed by the artist. The exclusive nature of a limited edition print effectively raises it’s value. Unlike limited edition prints, open edition prints may be endlessly reproduced. Because there is no limit to the number of prints that can be made, open edition prints are priced lower than limited edition prints.
