M. Freddy’s Signature Packaging

We deliver chalk pastel works on paper in our Signature Packaging.

  1. Archival interleaving

    Sourced via Preservation Equipment Ltd (PEL). PEL has received a Royal Warrant in the UK as a supplier of materials for conservation and preservation. We generally recommend reusing this layer to protect the artwork in storage, but please consult a local archivist for advice for your specific case.

    • Vintage brown cotton ribbon by PEL as an adhesive-free solution to hold the interleaving in place: unbleached, acid-free, archival (*note: the product page claims its colours will not bleed, but we recommend monitoring its condition if used for long-term storage)
