Choice of vendor matters! (And this one is good)
I brought mine in to be professionally framed, as it was a wedding gift. The lady at the frame shop says she's seen several of these... and apparently the ink often runs and smears very easily. She was pleasantly surprised at the fact that this one seemed to be durable and stable. Apparently NOT all vendors of these things are created equal, and apparently West Clay knows what's what. (Hooray! Because I had no idea of any of this when I bought the piece!) Also, it is beautiful. :)
