Glazing For Picture Framing
Why “WaterWhite” Glass makes a difference
Normal glass contains many impurities, such as iron, which give its blue-green hue and adversely affect the colour of the image beneath.
Our “WaterWhite” Glass is made in a special way that removes most impurities, resulting in a near perfect rendition of the image and mount.
“WaterWhite” Glass is standard at no extra cost, which is another reason why Newframes is so special.
