What to Expect
Placing an Order
Every photograph has a story. At The Lost Works, your chosen piece is printed and framed to order, ready to become part of yours.
You can place your order directly through our website. If you would like guidance on choosing a photograph, size or frame, get in touch - we’re happy to help you find the right piece for your space.
Printing and Framing
Once your order is confirmed, your photograph enters production here in the UK.
All our six sizes are giclée printed on 310gsm cotton fine art paper, chosen for its smooth, matt surface and ability to reproduce detail, depth and colour.
We offer complimentary framing for UK customers, with frames available in black, white or solid oak. Each frame is handcrafted and finished with protective acrylic glazing. Framed pieces arrive ready to hang, while print-only orders are supplied with a paper border for framing independently.
Please allow approximately three to four weeks for printing, framing and delivery.
Packaging and Delivery
We offer complimentary delivery on framed and unframed prints to mainland UK, subject to any exclusions set out in our delivery terms.
For delivery outside the UK, please contact us before placing your order so we can discuss the available options.
Authenticity and Care
Every print is supplied with a certificate of authenticity, and each purchase directly supports the photographer behind the work.
To help preserve your photograph, display it away from long hours of direct sunlight, excessive heat and moisture. If you have any questions about hanging or caring for your piece, please read our guide or get in touch.
About our frames
About Our Frames
A frame should complement a photograph, giving it space while protecting it for years to come. We offer complimentary framing for UK customers, with every frame made to order to suit your chosen print.
Materials and Finishes
Our frames are available in black, white or solid oak. Each is handcrafted, with a subtle grain that brings texture to the finished piece.
We use shadow box frames to create space between the photograph and the acrylic glazing. This depth gives the print a considered, gallery-style finish.
Borders and Proportions
Choose a paper border to give your photograph room to breathe, or a full-bleed finish for an image that extends to the frame.
For bordered prints, Small, Medium and Large sizes have a 2.5cm paper border within a 1.5cm frame. Grand, Statement and Gallery sizes have a 3.5cm border within a 2cm frame, keeping the proportions balanced as the artwork increases in size.
Protective Glazing
Each frame is finished with lightweight, shatter-resistant acrylic glazing that provides UV protection. This helps protect your photograph while making larger pieces easier to handle and hang.
Ready to Hang
Every framed print arrives ready to hang, with a picture cord or hanging hardware fitted to the back, depending on its size.
If you would like help choosing a finish or understanding the final framed dimensions, please get in touch. We’re happy to help you find the right fit for your photograph and your space.
Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Returns
Every print is made to order, with time taken to produce and finish your chosen piece. Please allow approximately three to four weeks for printing, framing and delivery.
UK Delivery
We offer complimentary delivery on framed and unframed prints to mainland UK. Additional charges may apply to addresses outside mainland UK, trade orders or deliveries that need to be resent after being returned to us.
Please check your delivery address carefully when placing your order. If you notice an error, contact us as soon as possible so we can help.
International Orders
If you are ordering from Europe or elsewhere outside the UK, please contact us before placing your order to discuss delivery options.
Where possible, we can arrange international delivery of unframed prints, packed in mailing tubes with protective paper. Framed artwork may be shipped internationally by special arrangement.
Additional shipping charges, taxes, customs duties or handling fees may apply. Import charges are payable by the recipient and may need to be settled before delivery.
Production & Delivery Times
We aim to prepare and dispatch orders within three weeks, with delivery usually completed within three to four weeks of ordering. These timings are estimates and may vary depending on production schedules, courier services and, for international orders, customs clearance.
If you need your artwork for a particular date, please get in touch before ordering so we can advise.
Changes to Your Order
If you would like to change your order, please contact us within 24 hours of placing it. As every piece is produced to order, changes may become more difficult once production has begun. This request does not affect any statutory cancellation rights.
Returns & Support
We want you to choose your photograph with confidence. If you have questions about sizing, framing or finishes, please contact us before placing your order and we’ll be happy to help.
For cancellation or return enquiries, or if your artwork arrives damaged, faulty or different from what you ordered, please email info@thelostworks.co with your order details so we can assist. Your statutory rights are unaffected.
