The brightest white available in Bainbridge's line, Spanish White is smooth in texture and very versatile. Works great with all image styles, from abstract and contemporary, to classic and old fashioned. It will add pop to any image and will never yellow, unlike cheap imported mats.

The most requested white for galleries, shows and displays.

A muted, warm cream. Antique is Bainbridge's Cream in their Artcare Alphamat line. Subtle, not overpowering, Cream is just the thing for any images that would be drowned out by the brightness of Spanish White. Excellent for portraits, documents and anything that you want to add a touch of warmth to.

Works great for matting older, yellowed certificates, letters and documents, as the subdued cream blends with the work, giving it an elegant look. Cream is accepted by most galleries and shows for display, being a neutral color, unlike most colored mat boards.

Ivory Black is Bainbridge's deepest, richest black in their Alphamat line. This mat has a black outer layer, with a bright white inner core, resulting in a white bevel where the window is cut, as seen in the above photo. The bright white bevel, combined with the dark, subtly textured black, makes this our most eye-catching mat.

Use this color when you want to draw people's attention. Works great with both subtle black and white images, and rich color photographs and prints. Our black will never yellow or fade, being truly archival quality. Black is accepted at many galleries and shows, being a neutral color, unlike many colored mats.
