Which size?

WHICH SIZE DO I CHOOSE?

We get this question a lot from our customers. It is hard to tell which size you need if you never ordered a diamond painting before. On this page, we would like to inform you more about the sizes.

 

THE EFFECT PER SIZE

The small sized diamond paintings we provide are suitable for images which just have few details. For example, our collection with cartoon designs is very suitable for the small diamond paintings because they do not contain many details and have solid lines with contrasting colours in their images. All other diamond paintings which don't have many details will be suitable for these sizes. The results will still be as beautiful with small sizes. If we talk about small sizes, we mean 20x20cm (7.87x7.87"), 20x25cm (7.87x9.84") and 25x30cm (9.84x11.81")

 

For diamond paintings holds, the bigger the size the better the result: as with a bigger size more diamonds can be used to portray the image, and thus more details will be visible.

 

BEST SIZE FOR A CUSTOM DIAMOND PAINTING

If you want to create a custom painting based on a photo or image you like, we advise you to get a minimum size of 30x40cm (11.81x15.75"). The reason is that a photo often holds a lot of details. It would be a pity if these details are not portrayed in your painting. As a result, the painting will look less alike. Most customers pick size 40x50cm (15.75x19.7") or 50x70cm (19.7x27.56") for their custom photo diamond painting. Does your photo or image contain only a small amount of details? Then you can choose a smaller size! Have a look at the charts below to see which size would fit best for your painting!
