In producing our black and white 100% Pure Carbon Ink Prints we use a printing system known as Piezography, which is highly regarded for creating monochromatic prints with an extraordinary tonal range and it is unarguably the absolute highest-standard in black and white printing.
Piezography is a revolutionary fine-art ink system made out of poly-encapsulated carbon particles that reflect and diffract light in very unique ways. Prints made with Piezography Carbon inks have a special tonal "depth" that is hard to explain verbally but when people see a print, they get it. It has the industry's best matte dMax (Density), highest resolving fidelity, visually balanced toning, most uniform gloss, and also stands out to be the most lightfast ink ever tested, that means the most durable and fade resistant ink ever made.
The Piezography brand of monochromatic carbon inks are considered to be environmentally friendly and safe. No more harmful chemicals in a darkroom. To capture the essence of the subject and to enhance its existence value, we have selected a top-quality premium paper - Hahnemuhle's Bamboo-Fiber Fine Art paper - which we also use for our Premium Paper Giclée Art Prints.
Images printed on paper will be smaller than the page size specified. The paper will have approximately in between 0.75 and 1.5 inches of white unprinted margin to aid in handling and framing. The image will be printed as large as possible to fill the selected size while leaving this small margin. Different images have different aspect ratios. This means that some images are different shapes than others.
