Banksy Welcome Mat, by zoomrider on Jan 14, 2023 20:47:16 GMT 1, Genuine question; why do people think the original batch are more desirable/command a higher price? As far as I understand they are all original/unique (hand made) but the only true discernible difference is the label on the front/back from the original batch vs the rest? In many examples Iโve seen of these framed, the tags on string are actually preferable for those wanting to display from the front.

Just a local framer to me down in Epsom Surrey. Can PM you the contact deets if youโd like them. TBH as itโs been said on the thread any half decent framer should be able to frame the welcome mat. Itโs just choosing what style youโd like which is the difficult bit. |

Banksy Welcome Mat, by zoomrider on Jan 15, 2023 14:56:47 GMT 1, Anyone remember when these were last actually released? Until recently, although the wait list has still been available to join I donโt think anyone has actually โwonโ one for some years? On reflection I wonder why this was the case e.g. why not make the closed announcement after the final batch (or a lot closer to it)? Why did it take so long?

Banksy Welcome Mat, by mojo on Jan 15, 2023 16:44:50 GMT 1, I understand this won't be a popular view but I just can't get my head round all this excitement about a doormat. The one and only good thing about them is that Banksy designed them to enable a group of refugee women to gain agency and earn their own money by making them, a great idea. All this fancy framing and fashioning tables around a doormat is really quite bizarre. I can understand feeling good about contributing to helping refugee's but aesthetically worshipping a doormat is kind of weird. Sorry.

Given the jokey, boastful tone, I'm guessing moe was only kidding.
