Fine Art Book & Matted Albums

I offer two styles of fine art albums. Both are made using the same high quality fine art paper and ink, but with a different page presentation format.  The Fine Art Book is presented with your images printed directly on to the page. With an almost invisible crease and the ability to bleed images off the page, this format allows for versatile album designs. Each page of the Matted Album is constructed using a white matt cut to reveal your images underneath. These albums have thick, heavyweight pages; a classic style with a contemporary finish. 

Fine Art Book

With each page measuring approximately 0.5mm thick, the book has a wonderful flexible feel when turning from page to page. Made using the finest quality papers and ink, each double page opens flat with an almost invisible crease allowing unrestricted layout designs to showcase your images. The original Fine Art Book is available in 12x12”, 10x10”, 8x8” and 6x6” sizes and with a choice of Art White, Art Cotton or Gallery Cotton papers. 

As standard each Fine Art Book includes the following:

✓  15 spreads (possible to add up to a maximum of 40 spreads)

✓  A choice of leather or fabric cover materials (upgrade cover options are available)

✓  A natural 100% cotton bag

✓  Cardboard presentation box

✓  High quality fine art printing

✓  A choice of 12 different endpaper colours

Matted Album

Each page measuring a substantial 2.8mm thick, your prints are mounted underneath bevelled matts to individually frame each image. The album lays flat but unlike our original Fine Art Book, your images in the Matted Album can not go across the crease. The album is trimmed flush for a clean and sophisticated feel. Our Matted Album embodies a classic elegance and impeccable attention to detail. 

Just like our original Fine Art Books, all of our Matted Albums come in a square format for maximum simplicity and style. Matted Albums are available in 12×12”, 10x10” and 8x8”, although copies can be easily made as a Fine Art Book in any size. Our Matted Album embodies a classic elegance and impeccable attention to detail. The thick pages encourage the viewer to take their time to appreciate each image individually.  Cover materials include leather, fabrics, silk or photo cotton. 

As standard each Matted Album includes the following:

✓  10 spreads (possible to add up to a maximum of 30 spreads)

✓  A choice of leather or fabric cover materials (upgrade cover options are available)

✓  A natural 100% cotton wrap with a tailored ribbon tie

✓  Cardboard presentation box

✓  High quality fine art printing

✓  A choice of 12 different endpaper colours

Papers

Art White is our most popular. It is a bright, white paper that reproduces a vivid spectrum of colours to deliver a punch. Alternatively, Art Cotton and Gallery Cotton are 100% cotton rag with a gentle texture that gives razor-sharp definition but with a warmer hue. Gallery Pearl is a baryta-based paper with a pearl finish. This high quality fibre-based paper delivers amazing deep blacks and rich vibrant images. It is available in our Matted Albums, Portfolios and with our Fine Art Print service.

✓Art White - 200gsm matte fine art paper. Alpha cellulose bright white fine art paper producing sharp saturated images. Our most popular paper

Personalisation

Techniques include time-honoured methods such as blind or foil debossing, through to modern laser engraving and state-of-the-art printing on our newest machine.
