Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is Islamic Art Designs?

Islamic Art Designs is a small family owned online store that launched in early 2023. We specialize in masjid and nature inspired wall art decor. We currently offer wall art, home decor, and personalized gifts, all inspired by Islamic art and culture. We work with a third party vendor based in India to fulfill production of the orders.

Which type of canvas is used for printing?

A poly-cotton canvas material is used by our third party vendor for printing the art design on the canvas because it is more textured than the standard paper used for printing. This material is particularly suited for art reproductions or as a way to make your designs look museum-quality. You may wonder why 100% cotton canvas material is not used. There a couple reasons for this:

  • Cotton is termed as a breathable material, which means it is prone to ripping and getting worn quickly. Durability is not cotton’s biggest strength, whereas polyester’s elastic traits make it more durable as a canvas material.
  • Because 100% polyester can get sticky with any kind of perspiration brought on it, using just polyester canvas would make the photos look like they are printed on plastic.
  • 100% cotton canvas is expensive and requires high maintenance, while 100% polyester canvas is cheap but doesn’t enhance pictures very well.

Hence for these reasons polyester and cotton is combined to get the best of both worlds. Also to make the canvas wrinkle-free, lightweight, and low-maintenance.

What method is used to stretch a frame?

All the canvases are hand-stretched across the frames to give you the best quality display of your photos.

Which type of wood do you use for printing?

The stretcher bars are made from kiln-dried pine wood (sourced from sustainable wood forests). It's a strong wood that can hold any size of canvas material firmly on it. The edges are rounded, in order to engulf the wooden frame in a clean and visually appealing way.

What goes on the sides of the canvas?

Depending on the art design, the sides may be wrapped or mirror wrapped. In a standard wrap, the image extends and gets wrapped around the edges. In a mirror wrap, the image is mirrored/reflected on the borders.

We offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee which is why if you're not pleased with our products for whatever reason, you can simply request a return and we will give you a 100% refund upon return of the item.

Which type of printers & inks do you use for printing?

Our third party vendor uses the latest HP Latex printers and HP Latex inks are used to produce consistent results. By using HP's Latex printers, the designs are sharpened with a rich and vibrant color. Additionally, the inks are designed with the environment in mind which requires no special ventilation or hazard labels.

How do I care for my Islamic art?

In general, avoid exposing your Islamic art to direct sunlight, water, or extreme temperatures. You can also use a soft cloth or feather duster to clean the surface of your art.
