Framed or Unframed Unframed Black Frame

This hand-carved and printed design features iris flowers and is part of my white flowers collection.

Irises are a favourite flower of mine - I'm drawn to their architectural structure, and the contrast between the sword-like leaves and the softness of the papery petals. They also come in a wide variety of colours, and I've used the unprinted paper to create white ones in this print.

Closer inspection of the print reveals the embossing of the petals, and also the visible fibres of this white Tosa-shi paper that glisten when they catch the light. These details add a textural dimension that is made possible due to the handcrafted nature of the piece, and add life to the print.

Each print is made using relief and stencilling printing techniques, adding in layers of colour to gradually build the image.

With a double bevel-cut mount chosen to complement the colours within the design, this handcrafted print is ready to frame at 7" x 10", or choose framed in thin black wood, ready to hang.

What makes this one special?

A botanical study - featuring white iris flowers.
Embossed petals - adding a delicate texture and depth
Hand-carved and printed - with slight variations that make each one unique

Further Details

Is this an original, or a reproduction print?

This is a hand-made original vinyl cut print, meticulously crafted by me in my Kirkcudbright studio. I carved the design into sheets of vinyl and printed from those onto soft white Japanese paper with archival pigment inks to create this keepsake artwork.

How big is it?

If you're buying an unframed print the size refers to the overall size of the mount.

If you're choosing a framed print, the size refers to the glass size. The width of the frame moulding will add a couple of centimetres each way to the final dimensions.

What type of paper is it printed on?

The paper for this print is Japanese Tosa-shi - a beautifully soft, fluffy white paper with visible fibres that glisten when they catch the light. The inks are water-based pigment inks of archival quality for longevity.

Does it come with the mount?

The double bevel-cut mount is included.

How is it packed for posting?

Unframed prints are sent in a protective sleeve within a rigid cardboard mailing envelope.

Framed prints are packaged with protective bubble and/or cardboard for safe transit.

Is the packaging eco friendly?

All packaging is as environmentally friendly as possible, and can be reused or recycled.

What are the delivery costs and timescales?

No extra shipping costs are added at check out - the price you see is the price you pay. Hand-made prints are created, mounted and framed in my studio. For unframed pieces, the delivery time is generally within 1 week as these are usually in stock, ready to send out to you. If the framed option is showing as out of stock, please get in touch and I'll advise on a timescale for framing.
