Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by Majestic on Feb 9, 2022 21:02:40 GMT 1, Whoever said the glitter was 'sealed in' was telling porkies... They look great from a distance though but these need framing with glass. Good news is half will get ruined with Windolene and microfibre's so less will exist. Dust and fluff attached glitter below. 
That glitter would have severely affected my mental health.

Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by tonys on Feb 9, 2022 21:18:27 GMT 1, In light of the glitter, how much do we reckon to frame one of these price-wise? Box frame no glass I'd say £350-400. With AR glass maybe £600 or so. Based on quotes I've had for similar bits
My small fruitfuls were £33 each

The glitter makes it - would just be flat without it.
Not that the NFT buyers care, its just numbers to them!

In light of the glitter, how much do we reckon to frame one of these price-wise? I recently had a Giclee print 70x70 CM box framed with AR glass and it cost around £250, I guess given that these are a little bigger at 100x100 CM and if you wanted a float mount, which it the way I think I will go, I suspect around £400-£500 wouldn't be far off the mark, the AR glass is costly, in comparison to standard glass or acrylic. |

Have to say, that the glitter is on top and exposed is worrying and annoying.
I'd think that that would get dusty/ dirty quite quickly, so would you have to have it framed?
And does would that glitter eventually deteriorate?

This will be a blow to those who wanted just to hang them as they are (Fruitful, Forever, NHS editions etc) and the added £££ for framing. I don't see any other way with the thickness of that glitter? Dust will collect like a magnet and there's no real way of cleaning/dusting as any threads/fluff will also get caught?

Yes, I don't think they have The Virtues or H6 Butterfly prints framed in the gallery either. It definitely would be more cost effective to hang them as they are, but the framing that I've seen really works well with the aforementioned works. I'm sure it will be the same with these. |

Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by Icesay on Feb 9, 2022 21:48:51 GMT 1, For Sale....I asked if glitter was sealed in and someone said it was. Crap. Which print do you have?
I didn't buy any in the end because it looked like glitter was external. If you read the thread I previously asked if glitter was sealed in and was told it was, turns out not. It's very interesting that you chose to ask that question. In an alternative reality there is someone with ulterior motives.

Yea, I also just relied on what was said here. Maybe one shouldn't. - I think the fact that the glitter sits on top could be a deal-breaker for many.
Those that saw them in person: could you see that it was on a different layer? Did it disturb the visual impression in any way? Didn't that look amateurishly done?

Almost all of the feedback that I've seen from those that visited the gallery was very positive. But, specifics about the glitter application from those that have seen them in person would be great.

I went and I would say some of the silver glitter is under the board and then if you look from an angle red glitter over the Perspex is in some kind of resin seal over the Perspex. I was not at all condemned about glitter falling off after close inspection

Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by michaeldee on Feb 10, 2022 8:17:42 GMT 1, Uggh... regarding these new posts about the screen print glitter(diamond dust) being on top of the plexiglass surface instead of behind, as it was originally mentioned. If accurate, IMO, this printing process seems highly unstable on top of the plexiglass front. Seems possible that there could be many examples from the edition that end up with glitter flaking off. I am suddenly reminded of Vonnegut's character Rabo Karabekian who lost his fame and fortune after his paintings started falling apart. Boo.

From a Heni mod on the discord discussion
“There's a laminate above the giclee butterfly print which is then printed onto using a process called screen printing (in which ink or in our case glitter is pressed through a prepared screen of fine mesh material so as to create a picture or pattern)”
The glitter is screen printed, then sealed, and isn’t going anywhere. The prints aren’t going to fall apart.

They will hammer out plenty of more editions in the future and they wont mess it up for sure.

Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by Art Lover Number 9 on Feb 10, 2022 9:12:20 GMT 1, I got a quote yesterday for a box frame from Frame Factory
(UK)
Thanks for your enquiry.
There are plenty of variables to consider that will affect the price of the framing [style/shape material of frame etc.]
Aa an approximate guide you can expect to pay would be between £250 & £280 for the faming & mounting alone. [floated in a contemporary box frame].
The separate price for the glass is as follows [separate from the framing cost].
U.V. glass- £129.25.
Museum glass- £584.92.
I hope this is of some help.
