Frequently Asked Questions – Prints & Wall Art

What’s the difference between lustre and fine art prints?

Lustre prints are a popular choice for many families. They have a subtle sheen—not too glossy, not too matte—which gives your photos a vibrant yet timeless finish. They’re fingerprint-resistant and durable, making them perfect for everyday framing or gifting.

Fine art prints, on the other hand, are all about texture and depth. These are printed on luxurious, museum-grade papers like Loxley Colour’s Giclée Fine Art range. The finish is beautifully soft and matte, with incredible detail and a painterly feel. They’re ideal for statement pieces and heirloom keepsakes.

What types of wall art can I choose from?

Loxley Colour offers a variety of premium wall art products, including:

• Framed Wall Art – Choose from a range of handcrafted frames in different finishes and styles, perfect for any home décor. Printed on high-quality papers with expert mounting and glazing.

• Acrylic Wall Art – A sleek, modern option with rich colours and a glossy finish. The print is sealed behind acrylic for a vibrant, contemporary look.

• Alumini Prints – Printed onto lightweight aluminium, these have a clean, minimalist finish and are both UV- and moisture-resistant. Perfect for modern spaces.

• Canvases – Classic and timeless, Loxley’s canvases are hand-stretched and printed with a satin laminate for protection. They’re ready to hang and look beautiful in any room.

Should I choose a canvas or framed wall art?

It really depends on your home style and the look you love. Canvas prints offer a soft, artistic feel and are great for relaxed, cosy spaces. Framed wall art can add a touch of elegance and structure, and gives you more options to match your existing décor.

If you’re unsure, I’m always happy to help you visualise how each option might look in your space—or even show you samples.

Why should I print my photos instead of just keeping the digitals?

Digital files are convenient, but they often stay tucked away on phones or hard drives, rarely looked at. There’s something incredibly special about seeing your photos brought to life in print—whether it’s a framed moment in your hallway, a canvas above the cot, or a treasured album your children can flip through years from now.

Printed images become part of your everyday life. They’re reminders of love, laughter, and the fleeting beauty of each season. While digital files can be lost or forgotten, printed art becomes a lasting legacy.

There’s no pressure to order wall art or prints, but I always encourage my clients to consider it—you’ve invested in preserving these memories, and they truly deserve to be seen and enjoyed.
