Christmas gift idea - a framed print of a Gwulo photo
 

I'd previously only offered unframed prints for sale, but earlier this year my sister-in-law moved to a new flat and I had a couple of my prints framed as a house-warming gift. I was very pleased with how they turned out, so in future Gwulo's prints are also available framed. (The unframed prints are still available, in case you have your own preferences for how you'd like them framed.)

Here's an example:

Framed Gwulo print

 

The prints are the type you see in art galleries and museums. The frame includes a two inch / five cm wide mat as the border, a classic black frame, and anti-reflective glass. For the image to be framed, you can choose from any of the photos in the online catalogue, and if you have my books you can also choose from any of the photos shown in them.

The price varies according to the size of the print, as follows:
 

  • Standard: longest side of printed image is 10 inches / 25 cm long
    • Print only @ HK$500 
    • Framed print @ HK$1,500 
       
  • Large: longest side of printed image is 15 inches / 37.5 cm long
    • Print only @ HK$900 
    • Framed print @ HK$2,000
       
  • Extra-large: longest side of image is 20 inches / 50 cm long
    • Print only @ HK$1,500 
    • Framed print @ HK$2,700
       
  • Custom: size according to your requirements, price to be confirmed
     

If you'd like to order one, please contact me (david@gwulo.com) and let me know which photo you've chosen, the size you'd like it printed, and whether you'd like to have it framed or unframed.

Please allow three weeks for printing and framing, so any orders for Christmas gifts will need to be placed by the end of November.
