Long Scenic Routes
- 40×50 cm (15.7″ × 19.7″) or larger — ensures wide areas and elevation changes are captured with clarity and detail.
-
About the Level of Detail
The amount of detail shown in your map depends on the route’s length and the area it covers:
- Shorter or compact routes allow for more intricate features (e.g., switchbacks, water details, road layering)
- Longer routes may be scaled down for clarity, showing larger shapes and terrain contours
We carefully adjust each design to match your route’s characteristics, ensuring the best possible representation.
-

Frames are then shipped in custom-made cardboard boxes. These boxes are double-layered, making them extremely strong and ideal for overseas shipping.
All frames are shipped with tracking so you can follow your order from our studio to your door.

Let customers speak for us
This has been made by my son. It is excellent and captures the spirit of Japan with Mt Fuji, the snow (as we saw it), cherry blossom and the pagoda. A lovely permanent reminder of a wonderful springtime holiday. The product arrived in perfect condition due to the good packaging.
Good quality product. Sent in record time. Am very happy with purchase. Thanks.
Sturdy & heavyweight mug with excellent, clear printing. Required a caption that wasn't exactly Queens English & it was spot on, no spell checking. Perfection all round.
Mug was a total surprise, larger & heavier. So sturdy that absolutely no chance of knocking it over!
Printing is crystal clear & perfect.
I highly recommend this mug.
