Mounting a Chinese Painting: Cold Mounting vs. Heat Mounting
All of our Chinese ink paintings are cold-mounted by hand. Recently many mounting shops and painting dealers based in China are heat-mounting their paintings. Using direct heat and even indirect heat on any paper will damage the paper's structure over the long-term. Cold-Mounting a Chinese painting takes a dry time of 24-48 hours depending on humidity levels where as the heat-mounting process is instantaneous yet can cause irreversible damage to a painting.
