What we frame
What we frame
If it matters to you, it is worth framing well. Here are the kinds of pieces we are most often asked about, and what we think about for each.
Artwork and fine art prints
Originals and prints need a frame that respects the artist’s intent. We think about mat proportion, glazing and how to show the edges of the work properly.
Photographs
From family portraits to landscapes. We consider how the colours and tones of the photograph sit against the mat, and how to protect the surface from light and handling.
Certificates and documents
Degrees, awards and official papers are often framed for display and kept for decades. We focus on safe mounting and sensible protection against light.
Heirlooms and textiles
Pieces passed down through a family can be fragile and personal. We take extra time to discuss condition, handling and the gentlest way to present them.
Memorabilia and keepsakes
Tickets, medals, letters, shirts and other items with a story. These often need depth, so we design the frame around the objects rather than forcing them flat.
Posters and large prints
Big pieces need strong construction and sensible hardware. We plan the frame so the finished piece is secure, balanced and ready to hang.
Find your frame style
Three directions to start from. We refine proportion, colour and depth to suit the work and the room.
Contemporary
Slim profiles, generous mats and clean lines.
Classic
Rich mouldings and traditional proportions.
Natural
Open grain and soft tones with a quiet presence.
Materials with character
Explore the families of materials we can build your frame from.
Wood tones
From pale, open grains to deep, rich stains, our carefully selected wood finishes bring out the natural beauty and character of every frame. Whether you prefer a light, contemporary look or a deeper, more traditional tone, each finish is chosen to complement your artwork, enhance its details, and blend beautifully with your space.

Bring your piece or send details. We talk through the artwork, the space and what you want from the frame.
Design selection
Compare mouldings, mats and glazing against your artwork and settle on the combination.
Expert framing
Your frame is cut, joined and assembled to the agreed design.
Final review
We check the finished piece with you before it goes home.

Experience
A personalised experience
No two pieces are alike, so no two frames should be either. We listen first, explain plainly and leave the decisions with you.
Bring
The piece itself if you can, or clear photographs and measurements if you cannot. Photographs of the wall where it will hang are also very helpful.
Discuss
We talk through style, colour, protection and how you plan to live with the piece. There is no pressure and no single right answer.
Decide
You choose, with all the information in front of you. We will tell you what we would suggest and why, and respect whichever direction you pick.
Questions we are likely to ask
- Where will the piece hang, and what is the wall like?
- Does the piece have a story or sentimental value we should know about?
- How much natural light does the spot receive?
- Do you prefer a classic, contemporary or natural look?
- How much protection would you like to build in?
- Is the piece part of a group or gallery wall?
Every Piece Has a Story.
We believe the right frame does more than complete a picture.
