Services
Bespoke Picture Framing
We create tailored frames that complement your artwork's style and your space's aesthetics. Our process begins with a consultation to understand your vision, followed by material selection from our extensive range of mouldings, mounts, and glazing options. Each frame is crafted to balance visual appeal with protective functionality, ensuring your artwork remains vibrant and intact for years to come.
Museum Level Framing
Specialising in Level 1 Museum-standard framing, we use archival materials and reversible techniques to preserve high-value or historically significant pieces. This includes acid-free mount boards, UV-filtering glass, and sealed backing to protect against environmental damage. Ideal for artworks intended for long-term preservation and display.
Conservation Level Framing
Our Level 2 Conservation framing offers balanced protection for collectable or sentimental pieces. We employ pH-neutral materials and protective glazing to slow natural degradation while maintaining visual impact. This option suits original paintings, limited editions, and family heirlooms requiring durable yet reversible presentation.
Shadow Box Framing
Designed for three-dimensional items like sports memorabilia, baby keepsakes, or military relics, our shadow box frames provide secure display with depth. Custom compartments and mounts ensure fragile items are showcased safely while maintaining accessibility for future handling.
Artwork Restoration
We revitalise existing frames through cleaning, reglazing, and minor repairs to restore their original condition. This service extends the life of cherished frames while maintaining their structural integrity and aesthetic appeal, ensuring they continue to complement your artwork effectively.
