We create made-to-measure picture frames tailored to individual requirements. Our service includes traditional and contemporary styles using materials like wood, perspex, and aluminium. Clients receive expert guidance on selecting finishes and designs that complement their artwork and space, ensuring a perfect fit for paintings, photographs, certificates, and more.
Hand-made frames
Crafted from premium timbers like oak and ash, our hand-made frames offer unique finishes including gold-leaf, lacquer, and distressed effects. This service caters to clients seeking bespoke profiles that match existing decor or specific artistic visions, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques for durable, high-quality results.
Perspex cases
Perspex framing solutions protect artwork while maintaining visual clarity. Our cases filter 93% of UV radiation to prevent fading and offer unbreakable durability. Ideal for displaying valuable items in homes or commercial spaces, this service combines practicality with sleek aesthetics for photographs, posters, and delicate objects.

Clients can choose from traditional wood mouldings to contemporary aluminium designs, with options to match existing interior styles. This service enhances mirror aesthetics while ensuring secure, professional installation for residential and commercial settings.
