Gift / Print for Home
For general consumer purposes, we offer smaller prints. They have the same beautiful aluminum that the larger prints do, but they are more affordable due to minor changes to the color matching process and backing.
The backing options are DUO and Wall-Mount. DUO allows you to stick the print to the wall, or display it with an easel on a desk/shelf. Wall-mount has sawtooth cut-outs if you prefer to hang on a nail, or if you want to hang the print in a bath/steam room as the adhesive on duo can release in extremely damp environments.
For these smaller prints we simply guarantee pleasing color instead of ensuring a studio-accurate, professional-grade color, saving you money on studio editing time. These prints are the perfect affordable option for all kinds of gifting!
Prints ranging from 5x5 to 11x14

The different metal finishes:
We have multiple finishes for prints >=16x16. You can click here to get the details of our 5 finishes. If buying a small DUO print, it typically defaults to white gloss (our best seller) unless you email info@vividmetalprints.com and ask us to change it after you order.
