Art Restoration
Our Fine Art Conservator has over 37 years’ experience working with materials and art from Classical paintings to Impressionist to Modern.
Mouldings/Frames
We have an extensive selection of colours, styles and materials to suit your needs and preferences and to help you visualise your project when framed. We will be very pleased to go through these with you in our workshop.
Mount Cutting
Mountboard comes in a wide range of colours and textures and can be applied singly or overlapped to highlight certain aspects of your project, the objective being to complement the piece but not to distract from it.
Object Showcasing
We are experienced in framing and showcasing a wide range of objects and memorabilia and can draw upon a wealth of knowledge of materials and techniques. We are very creative and love to work with our customers to design the best way to present their projects.
Textile Art
There is a broad range of techniques recommended to properly present and protect the diverse styles, materials and disciplines in textile art. Typically we prefer to lace and sandwich mount to secure fabric art. We are always happy to offer our experience to talk through the specifics of your project.
Canvas Stretching
Artwork on canvas is often purchased as a rolled item, which then requires stretching over wooden stretcher bars before being displayed. Our stretcher bars are available in a range of depths and sizes. We tailor make our stretcher bars onsite.
Sports Memorabilia
We are experienced in framing and showcasing all manner of sporting memorabilia from Olympic medals to representative caps, signed international shirts, judo belts, tickets and programmes. We are framers for England Women's Rugby Union team.
Conservation
The standard of framing, mounting and presentation we adhere to is to conservation level throughout our services. We undertake to ensure that work is completely reversible without harm to the artwork or project and the materials used will provide protection against deterioration.
Speciality Glass
If you want to give special protection to your subject, we have a range of specialty glass offering reflection control and UV protection. There is a range from standard up to museum level and we will be pleased to provide advice and costs as required. We also have a range of acrylics.
