Description

Museum Series Pastelbord is a medium textured, highly absorbent surface designed for pastels. Pastelbord is crafted from our premium warp-resistant 1/8″ profile FSC-certified Hardbord™ that is protected with our proprietary Archiva-Seal™ and coated with an acid-free clay and gesso ground with a marble dust finish. Artists choose Pastelbord because the tooth of the marble dust finish holds more layers of pastel than paper and it is versatile enough to be used with wet and dry applications.

High-Density Hardbord™ Core
Ampersand’s premium, warp-resistant, FSC-certified Hardbord™ ensures your artwork is supported to prevent damage from warping, bowing, or movement.

Eco-Friendly and Artist Safe
Central to Ampersand’s mission is to ensure that our products do not harm the environment or the artists who use them. Both our domestic and imported panels are made from FSC-certified forest products that promote sustainable forests and are also free from formaldehyde or harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds), unlike other hardboards and MDF boards.

Truly Archival
Sealed and protected with our proprietary Archiva-Seal™ barrier technology to prevent yellowing from Support Induced Discoloration (SID).

Made in the USA
Proudly handcrafted in our factory in Buda, Texas. Unparalleled quality and craftsmanship have made Ampersand Art Supply the leader in painting panels for over 25 years.

Shipping & Delivery

Packaging

Every order is packaged in a way to protect your purchase. I have finessed this over the last 12 years to use fully-recyclable, non-plastic packaging that gives the biggest protection without using lots of resources. I do sometimes reuse packaging from stock deliveries, and this is the only time we will send with bubble wrap or other plastic packaging.

Shipping

There is no minimum order.

I try to be as fair as possible with the postage pricing. I operate dynamic pricing, reflective of the current costs of sending post. The reason for our pricing structure is to ensure your parcel has the appropriate insurance and tracking to increase the chance of its safe delivery wherever you are in the world. The postage options that you receive are dependent upon what is in your basket and you will see them whilst processing your order. If you are unsure, please select the 'Contact Us' option upon checking out, and I will get in touch so that we can proceed with your order.

Any orders travelling outside of the U.K. require a customs declaration form. You will not be charged our U.K. VAT at 20%. When you go to check out and the website recognises you are not within the U.K., the VAT will not be billed to you. However, you will be charged your own country's taxes and a handling charge either when it reaches the destination country, or I have requested the fees before sending. This varies for each country. I am not responsible for any custom taxes or charges you have to pay on receiving your order. If you refuse the parcel on arrival and it is returned to me we will only refund the value of the goods minus 10% to cover the cost of administrating your order.

I aim aim to despatch your order within 1-3 working days (Monday to Friday) after the order is received. Please be aware that I also work part-time alongside the business so cannot always respond immediately to email correspondence, messages or phone calls. Same day despatch is not always possible unless specifically requested by prior arrangement. I will keep you informed as to the status of your order.
