Home/Finish & Size Guide
Finish & Size Guide
Two decisions come with every Celestial Yak poster: which finish, and how to hang it. Here is the short version.
Matte or Gloss
| Matte BOPP | Gloss BOPP | |
|---|---|---|
| Surface | Soft, non-reflective | Smooth, glass-like sheen |
| Best light | Bright rooms, windows opposite, downlights | Softly lit rooms, indirect light |
| Best artwork | Dark, moody, text-heavy and line work | Vivid colour, devotional art, photography |
| Fingerprints | Hides them | Shows them more; wipes clean |
| Price | ₹99 | ₹99 |
If in doubt, choose Matte. It is the more forgiving finish and looks right in nearly every room.
Size
Every poster is 13 × 19 inches (33 × 48 cm) — Super A3, a little larger than A3. It is big enough to anchor a wall above a desk or bed, and small enough to hang in pairs and grids.
Framing
- Without a mount: any 13 × 19″ or A3+ frame.
- With a mount: a 16 × 22″ frame with a 13 × 19″ aperture.
- No frame: the lamination protects the print, so removable poster strips, magnetic hangers or bulldog clips all work.
Planning a gallery wall
- Three in a row above a sofa or bed: leave 5–7 cm between prints and centre the middle one at eye level, about 145 cm from the floor.
- Six in a grid (3 × 2): keep the gaps identical horizontally and vertically.
- Ten up a staircase: follow the slope of the handrail with the centres of the frames.
Care
Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid direct, all-day sunlight and keep the print away from heat sources. Rolled prints relax flat within a day.
