i recently purchased some really great panels of some watercolor on rice paper and i'm very ready to have them up in my home somewhere. what is the best way to achieve this? what is the best way to preseve the integrity of the paper/color? is it best to frame it? do i have to frame it in a special way...with certain products? any advice/websites would be great. thanks!

Take them to a professional framer. They need to be under glass with an acid free backer board and acid free mats. The framing will be costly, but it will keep the paintings in top condition. If the paintings are valuable, museum mounting is best. It preserves the paintings.

Have them matted and framed under glass using acid free materials. It is important to not expose them to sun light or strong fluorescent light.
