Picture Framing Glass- Deck The Walls Style

Glazing is a term used in picture framing that refers to the protective covering over the artwork. This can be glass or acrylic. Glazing is used to protect against the damage that sunlight inflicts on paper art over a period of time,which includes severe color loss, paper embrittlement and general deterioration. Glass comes with UV protection to slow down the effects of sunlight on artwork. This is called Conservation Glass.

Why use Conservation Glass? It's the right thing to do. If it's worth framing, it is worth protecting, and a key component of a quality framing package.
