Ivory passepartout

Product information

1.5 mm ivory passepartout (also called a mat in American English or a mount in British English) with a subtle warm, slightly yellowish tone. The colour appears softer than pure white and creates an understated, harmonious framing – especially suited to vintage posters, photographs and art with warm tones.

The passepartout is made from high-quality acid-free board, which helps protect your artwork against discolouration caused by the board over time.

Design your passepartout with one or more cutouts, choosing the dimensions and position of each opening. Frame a single artwork, combine several pictures in one frame, or experiment with an asymmetrical arrangement with extra space around your images. You can also order the passepartout without any cutouts.

Ivory and white passepartouts are available in sizes larger than 81×110 cm, while all other colours are available up to 81×110 cm. This ivory passepartout can be made up to 120×160 cm. Please note that sizes above 70×100 cm incur higher shipping costs and must be delivered directly to your address, as parcel shops cannot accept these sizes.

Set the correct measurements

Outer dimensions
The outer dimensions must match the size of the glass in your frame – i.e. the format the passepartout needs to fit. You can start with a standard frame size or choose custom dimensions if your framing requires a different format.

Cutout dimensions
The cutout dimensions are the size of the opening itself. We recommend subtracting 1 cm from both the width and height of your artwork. This creates an overlap of approx. 5 mm on all sides, concealing the edges of your artwork behind the passepartout. For example, an artwork measuring 53×67 cm requires a cutout of 52×66 cm.

If you choose multiple cutouts, enter the dimensions for each individual image. The openings can vary in size, allowing you to combine pictures in different formats.

Number of cutouts

Choose between 0 and 5 cutouts in your ivory passepartout. Multiple openings allow you to bring together family photos, wedding pictures or a series of small artworks in a single frame, and each opening can have different dimensions. If you choose 0 cutouts, you will receive a full sheet of board without any openings, onto which your artwork can be mounted using, for example, acid-free tape.

Cutout position

There are three ways to position the opening:

Centred cutout (standard): The artwork is positioned in the centre of the passepartout, with equal top and bottom margins.

Top-aligned cutout: The top and side margins are equal, creating a visually balanced arrangement with a wider bottom margin.

Custom position: Place the opening exactly where you want it. Choose the distance from the top and left edges, and see how your choices look in our live preview.

If you choose multiple cutouts, each opening must be positioned individually using the custom position option.
