Questions
Where can I buy original linocut prints in the UK?
The Haud sells prints made by hand in Britain by the artists themselves, using techniques such as linocut, etching, screenprint and letterpress. Each product page names the technique and links to the profile of the person who printed it.
What is the difference between an original print and an art print?
An original print is made by hand from a block, plate, screen or type the artist prepared themselves, so each sheet is printed separately and no two are exactly alike. An art print or giclée is usually a digital copy of a painting or drawing. The product page names the printing technique, so you can see which you are buying.
What is letterpress printing?
Letterpress prints from metal or wood type set by hand, letter by letter, then inked and pressed into the paper, which leaves a slight bite you can feel. It is how books were printed for five hundred years.
How should I frame a hand-pulled print?
Use an acid-free mount so the print does not touch the glass, UV-filtering glass if it will hang in daylight, and keep it out of direct sun and away from damp walls. A framer will usually hinge the print at the top rather than glue it down, so it can be removed later.
How do I know these pieces are really handmade in Britain?
Every maker on The Haud applies and is reviewed individually before they can sell, and imports, mass production and resellers are not allowed. Each piece links to the profile of the person who made it, so you can see who they are and where they work before you buy. Payment is taken by Stripe. On UK orders you have at least 14 days from delivery to change your mind, except on personalised and commissioned pieces, and anything faulty or not as described is always covered.
