Open Edition Print:

An open edition giclee print is a high-quality copy of an original artwork, made using archival inks on professional-grade printing media such as watercolor paper or canvas. It has bright colors and sharp details that look just like the original art. However, it is not signed or numbered by the artist and there are no limits on how many can be made, so they are not as rare or valuable as limited edition prints.
