Tamalpais Editions™
⭐ NEW ⭐
Exquisite fine art prints sealed in brilliant gloss, floating off the wall. Think metal prints, but capturing far more detail and faithful colors.
Why a Tam Edition?
Tam Editions™ have to be seen to be believed! Imagine a combination of the feel-like-you're-there feeling of a metal print with the detail and colors of an acrylic facemount. The finish is fairly similar to a metal print, but starting with a fine art print allows for a level of detail, color accuracy, and longevity that is just not possible with a traditional metal print. We prefer Tam Editions to metal prints, and we think you will too! Photos truly don't do them justice!
Good to know
Sizing
We can create Tamalpais Editions™ up to 24x48". We don't charge extra for custom sizes, just let us know what you're looking for!
We will inspect your file to ensure it is good to go at the print size you've requested. If it's not, we may suggest a smaller print size or our professional editing.
Custom framing
We also offer our Tam Editions framed! While they are often displayed as frameless floating displays, the frame takes the look to another level.
We build custom built solid wood frames, made in house. Our standard frame is an elegant, light-colored, slim moulding, and we mount the print inside so it appears to be "floating" in the frame. We can also make custom frame designs.
Mounting
Each Tamalpais Edition™ fine art print is fused to your choice of a sturdy wood or dibond backing, and sealed with a crystal clear protective layer. A hidden mount behind the print makes it appear to be "floating" off the wall.
A word on 'giclée'
'Giclée' is a commonly used buzzword with no concrete meaning or established criteria. However, our prints meet any reasonable interpretation of 'giclée', referencing our high-quality archival materials, our printers with up to 12 pigment-based inks, our maximum print quality, and our mounting processes.
Shipping/delivery
Local pickup is preferred. Local delivery and shipping are available for a reasonable fee.
Turnaround times
Try to give us 2-3 weeks' notice, but we can often be quicker if you need us to be. If you're on a very tight deadline, we'll try our best, but a rush charge may apply.
We keep it simple.
We believe it's better to be experts in a few things, than to be mediocre at many things. So, we only focus on two options for our Tam Editions -- glossy or metallic, both with an optional floater frame. We recommend metallic. 😉
Tamalpais Editions are a larger investment than our other offerings, but you figured as much, right?
Reprint + return policy
Defective prints are caused by a lab's lack of quality control and personal involvement. We get it. We've BEEN THERE. We (Tung and Jeff) are experts and will keep you updated through the process so there's no surprises, and both of us personally inspect every print before letting you know it's ready for pickup. We prefer local pickup so you can see the print immediately, and to avoid involving shipping carriers so there is little opportunity for post-production damage.
If there's an issue with the print as it comes out, we'll almost always catch it and reprint it (and we'll probably give you the test print for free). If you manage to catch something that we didn't, we'll be impressed, and we'll gladly take care of you.
Due to the custom-created nature of our products, we are generally unable to accept returns, unless the issue's our fault.
