Framing silk picture

[Helap]

Hi,
I have one problem with my bigger silk picture. How correct I have to frame it? With glass, without glas. Please, tell me how do you frame your silk picture?

Hi,
There are several ways to frame a piece of silk. You can stretch it around acid free foam core and placed behind glass. This will preserve the artwork the best. Alternatively you can pin it to a frame made of canvas stretcher bars but this will offer no protection from dust and dirt unfortunately.
