The Products
Same art, same archival paper, same pigment inks. The difference is format:
Posters ($35–$85) ship rolled in a protective tube. You frame them yourself or hang them as-is. Great if you already have a frame you like, or if you want to try a piece before committing to framing.
Framed prints ($115–$330) arrive ready to hang. Solid pine frame, shatterproof UV-protective plexiglass, mounting hardware included. Unbox, hang, done.
Both use the same 250gsm archival matte paper and pigment inks rated for 100+ years.
Every piece starts with human creativity — observation, reference photography, and creative direction developed over 30+ years of professional design and fine arts work.
We use modern digital tools in the process, including AI-assisted software for exploring compositional variations at speed. Then comes the hard part: ruthless curation (we keep roughly 1-2% of what gets generated), followed by hours of hands-on refinement — digital and hand repainting, color correction to print-calibrated profiles, upscaling, and technical cleanup in Photoshop.
AI is a tool in the workflow, the same way photographers use computational photography or architects use parametric design. The creative decisions, curation standard, and technical execution are entirely human.
These are archival prints. The work is digitally native — there are no "originals" in the traditional painting sense. Think of it like photography: the digital file is the source, prints are how you experience it.
We don't do numbered editions or artificial scarcity.
Materials & Quality
Paper: 250gsm archival matte paper — gallery-grade weight with a natural white, uncoated surface.
Inks: Archival pigment inks rated for 100+ years of color stability. UV-resistant and fade-resistant.
Frame (framed prints only): Solid pine wood, 20–25mm profile. Shatterproof plexiglass with UV protection. Ready to hang — hardware included, no assembly.
Close, but not identical. Screens emit light; prints reflect it. Your piece will look richer and more dimensional in person — less backlit glow, more texture and depth.
Every design is calibrated to professional print standards before production.
The materials are rated for 100+ years under normal indoor display conditions — away from direct sunlight and high humidity. These are built to outlast your furniture.
Shipping & Delivery
Each piece is printed to order. Production takes 3–5 business days, then shipping adds 3–7 business days within the US. Total: roughly 1–2 weeks.
International orders take 7–14 business days after production. You'll get a tracking number by email once your piece ships.
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on size and destination. Orders over $150 ship free within the US.
Yes — to 30+ countries. Customs duties or import taxes may apply depending on your location. Those are determined by your country's import policies, not by us.
Framed prints ship with corner protectors, foam backing, and a rigid outer carton. Posters ship in protective tubes. If anything arrives damaged, we replace it free — see Returns below.
Returns & Guarantees
30-day returns. If the piece doesn't work in your space, send it back within 30 days of delivery in its original packaging for a full refund. You cover return shipping — we refund everything else.
Email concierge@merrittlane.com to start a return.
Contact us within 7 days with photos and we'll ship a replacement immediately at no charge. No need to return the damaged piece.
We don't do direct exchanges, but the workaround is simple: return the original (30-day policy applies) and place a new order for the one you want.
Care & Display
Any interior wall away from sustained direct sunlight and high humidity. Bedrooms, living rooms, offices, hallways, kitchens — all good. Avoid bathrooms with poor ventilation and outdoor spaces.
Framed pieces come with preinstalled sawtooth hangers — just add a nail or wall anchor appropriate for your wall type. A level helps. If you've never hung art before, YouTube is your friend, or a local handyman can do it for $20–40.
Soft microfiber cloth, dry or barely damp. No glass cleaner — it can damage the plexiglass coating.
Ordering
No. Guest checkout works fine.
All major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and Shop Pay.
Yes. Shipping may increase with additional items depending on size.
