Karlovy Vary Black & White Travel Print

We hear you. This took us a while to figure out too.

The global print and photography industry is littered with inconsistencies when it comes to print size, photograph dimensions, frame measurements and mount openings. It is common to see one print shop or a photographer selling prints in various sizes and dimensions to another. This can result in confusion, frustration and sometimes disappointment.

We strive to do our best to make everything clear and consistent for you.

The prints are available in four different sizes, but not all prints are available for purchase in every size or measurement you see in the shop. Each print comes with a white border to maintain a clean style when displayed, while some come with typography to add a trendy and modern look to the print.

Here are the available sizes in the shop:

30 x 40 cm / 12 x 16”

50 x 70 cm / 20 x 28”

60 x 80 cm / 24 x 32”

70 x 100 cm / 28 x 40″ (only available with frameless prints)

Before considering a purchase there are two important terms to understand and differentiate.

the “print paper size” means how big the paper size is.

the “printed photo size” means how big the printed image is.

So for example, a 30 cm x 40 cm print order means the total paper size (print paper size) is 30 cm x 40 cm. The actual image on the paper (printed photo size) is 20.1 cm x 29.1 cm due to the inclusion of the white border on all sides. Now do note that you will only see the ‘Print Paper Size’ option for FRAMELESS prints.

As for framed prints, you will see ‘Size’ option to choose a framed print size of your desire.

Since Ikea sells budget-friendly frames, we’ve used their frame measurement as a benchmark.

A good example of Ikea’s frame that is sold with the mount opening is HOVSTA and RIBBA. FISKBO is the most affordable among the three but does not come with a mount opening. So for that reason, each print comes with a white border to maintain a clean style when displayed.

Yes. Most of our prints are sold with wooden frames either Ready-to-Hang or Not Assembled.

We offer wooden frames in three different colours styles:

• Dark Wood
• Oak Wood
• White
• Black

We also have some prints sold without frames.

If you already have a frame and want to fill it with a Uurya Print, please ensure that you purchase the correct “print paper size”.

If you have a frame that does not include the mount, don’t worry because all the prints are designed with white borders to maintain a clean style with or without a mount.

Yes all our prints are sustainable. This is personally important to us because the paper chosen is integral to the quality of the photographic works.

We’ve spent countless hours reviewing printers that put sustainability at the core of their business practices. All photographic works are printed to archival museum-grade and premium quality. Each are overseen by master printers who thoughtfully select papers and frames that are FSC certified or equivalent certifications depending on regional availability. It’s better for the people and the planet!

We selected two types of paper:

• Premium matte paper (or Uncoated 200 gsm / 80lb cover)
• Archival matte paper (or Uncoated 250 gsm / 100lb cover)

Archival paper is only available on uncoated stock. It has a more “natural” colour as it doesn’t contain any optical brightening agents.

Intentional sustainable packaging

In our efforts to do our bit for the environment in any way possible, all packaging materials are recyclable and reusable.

For prints, different packaging are used (either flat, tube, tube with shipping roll, or triangular/rectangular box) depending on the size of the print as well as the country where the print is produced and shipped from.

What we’re working on:

There’s a lot more to the shop’s trajectory to a fully sustainable supply chain.

Check back in the coming months as we continue to document changes for the shop’s supply chain.

A selected local print partner will print and do deliveries. They receive the order from Yasmin Uurya and is responsible for printing, framing and performing quality reviews. Our prints are made on demand. The print partners will also help package and deliver the order to you.

Please allow 7 -14 business days for delivery.

We’ve spent long hours reviewing options to select the best paper for our photography, and your prints. Although we cannot share with you the paper brand used, we can, however, confirm that these are the two types of papers we selected:

• Premium matte paper (or Uncoated 200 gsm / 80lb cover)
• Archival matte paper (or Uncoated 250 gsm / 100lb cover)

Archival paper is only available on uncoated stock and has a more “natural” colour as it doesn’t contain any optical brightening agents.

The difference it makes to the images is truly amazing! The detail and colour of each print are beautifully presented with depth, texture, zero shine and lasting quality. The paper itself is rich to the touch and can last for several hundred years.

If your prints arrive with obvious damage to the packaging, the print and the frame, please immediately take photos of the damage and immediately inform us within 30 days of receiving the item by emailing hello@yasminuurya.co

Please do the same if you believe the order was damaged during transit.
