In the home environment proper framing is a very
important factor in art preservation. Since the typical household
does not have fully controlled climate, conservation framing is
the main measure in protecting your art.
Proper framing has additional objectives such as
adaptation of the art to the interior design and emphasizing special
qualities of the art. We at Karo Arts are well known for our design
of frames and are specially proud of the conservation aspect of
our framing.
Below are several rules for proper framing:
1. Avoid irreversible processes like gluing, cutting
etc.
2. Avoid any materials that may have an adverse
effect on the art such as self adhesive tapes, acidic mounting boards,
acidic or penetrating glues or corrugated cardboard.
3. Insulate the art as much as possible from climate
influences, insects, molds etc.
4. Create sufficient space between the art and the
glazing (glass, Perspex or polycarbonate)
