Warranties

Products printed by Art House Reproductions for sale via this website are covered by our Replacement Warranty.

While we use the best and most appropriate products available for each order at the time, there are factors beyond our control that can affect the life of a reproduction.

Under normal household conditions you could reasonably expect a pigment reproduction on top quality paper or canvas to last 3-4 generations (80 -100 years) without noticeable fading. All longevity tests are done in controlled environments, using advanced aging techniques. The real world is quite different. Apart from simple UV light fade, there are other factors such as humidity, air pollution, improper framing etc that can affect the life of a print, not to mention floods, fires and accidental damage.

The Art House Warranty covers all possibilities.

  • All prints and fine art reproductions made by Art House Reproductions are covered by our Lifetime Replacement Warranty.
  • If ANYTHING should happen to your print or fine art reproduction, we will replace it for 50% of the current price provided the original print is returned to us.
  • All replacements must first be approved by the artist. Due to copyright laws, we must get the artist's approval before making any replacement.
