As it's A4 in size, it will fit into an off the shelf frame.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt will be posted out in a white mount with the certificate.  Postage to the UK is free.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GYOTAKU GIFTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57463225188739,"sku":"330824","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/5287\/4419\/files\/1D0D637A-D245-41D9-967E-FB6896FC18E0.jpg?v=1772146111","url":"https:\/\/gyotakugifts.co.uk\/products\/gyotaku-impression-taken-from-the-surface-of-a-large-prawn-5","provider":"JANE EVANS GYOTAKU ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
