Canvas that feels like it belongs in a gallery.

Easelhouse canvases are built to feel solid and intentional: thick archival poly-cotton, real wood behind the fabric, and a deeper edge that gives the piece presence on the wall. It looks like something you chose carefully, not just something to fill a gap.

We print on calibrated giclée machines, then hand-stretch each canvas so the surface stays smooth and the corners are clean. The frame stays straight, the colour stays rich, and the piece looks as good up close as it does from across the room.
