What is the expected life of a Thunderdome Editions giclée? :

All Color fades - this is true.  A well made giclée print, however, will last longer than most lithographs, serigraphs and even some original paintings.  Unlike other types of prints, giclée's have undergone extensive, third party fade-testing.  While the longevity of a giclée is affected by many variables, under typical home or office lighting, Thunderdome Editions™ giclée's are estimated to last in excess of 100 years without any noticeable fade.  All of this testing information comes from independent testing labs and the manufacturers of the materials we use.  Thunderdome Studio is not responsible for any damage to our prints from improper handling or exposure to extreme environmental conditions.
