Your artwork should reflect you - but not literally! Here's all you need to know when choosing the best glazing for your collection. At DDG Frameshop, we offer three types of glazing. The first priority in framing is artwork safety and glazing is your first line of protection from damaging UV rays. For that reason, we only offer glass or plexi with UV protection.
