DELIVERY

Once your payment has been received, we will send you an email containing proof of payment and will begin preparing your artwork for shipment.

  1. How are artworks packaged?

Limited edition prints are rolled in a protective layer of glassine and shipped in a triangular tube sized to accommodate the print. Original works are packaged flat to protect any media applied to the substrate. Please note that in certain cases original works on paper, that are deemed safe to do so, may ship rolled.

  1. What if my work arrives damaged?

ARTWORK

  1. What is a limited edition print?

A limited edition print is an artwork produced as a multiple in a predetermined quantity. All editions offered through Ninth Editions are exclusive to our platform and are not available for purchase elsewhere. Each edition on the website is limited to the number specified in the artwork description. For example, if an artwork is listed as being part of an edition of 5 it will be 1 of 5 total artworks produced at that scale, on that substrate, etc. and once it is sold out the artist will not reissue the same design at the same scale. Each edition we offer is printed and numbered to order. The number written on the back of your print (ie. 3/5) indicates its position in the run. 

  1. What kind of paper do you use for limited edition prints?

We work closely with our artists to select the paper that will best serve their vision for the artwork. Paper details are listed in each limited edition print description. For additional information on the substrates we use, please see our printer Smokestack Studio’s website. 

  1. What is a Giclée Print?

Giclée is a French term meaning “to spray”, referring to how an inkjet printer produces works. Our print partner, Smokestack, uses the highest grade archival pigment inks so that your print is truly archival and with proper care should last up to 200-400 years.  

  1. What is an original/unique piece?

If an artwork is listed as an Original Artwork or a Unique, it indicates that only one of these artworks exists. Visually, you will notice the application of whichever medium the artist is working in on the surface of the paper. 

  1. Why do you recommend framing with UV protective glass? 

Prolonged exposure to UV rays is harmful to arworks and can result in light damage. This can include fading and/or discolouration of artworks, photographs, and works on paper. UV protected glass will block 98% of UV rays to protect your artwork from harmful ultraviolet light, preserving the integrity of your artwork over time.
