Dents in gold leaf or the wood, chips, scratches and knocked off bits are inevitable with even the most care, so a frame will protect the work. Works in excess of 70cm x 140cm need not be framed as they look and are too bulky.
The lining in these frames can be of coarser materials than for written calligraphy sho without any cheapening effect. Be certain the wood and the colour of the lining contrast -light wood and a light lining look lost. Frames must furthermore be deeper set than otherwise might be necessary to accommodate three centimeters or more of wood. Some have resorted to the clever use of frames just for exhibitions and then switching the contents, but judging by recent exhibitions the life span of a frame is only a couple of years. A double frame will often set a work off well especially if the work is on thinner materials of a centimeter or less.
Exhibitions
In most group exhibitions one has no say as to where his work will be displayed and it may occasionally be someplace among three tiers as much as three to four meters above ground.
