As well as different finishes, we can cut on our computerised mountcutter, a variety of quality of boards (conservation to museum).

With museum level mountboard, the colour is the same throughout the board - no whitecore - which can sometimes look unsightly, especially on older artwork. But it also means the mount will never affect the artwork.
