Our Standards
Our framing department has many frame mouldings and mount samples, specialist glass and acrylic samples all tailored towards contemporary fine art picture framing. We use only the highest quality materials and equipment, carefully selected to ensure the artwork is preserved and protected to conservation framing standards or museum framing standards.
Location
We are based in the iconic Alaska Buildings, the well known Art Deco factory just off Tower Bridge Road. This is a gated complex with 24 hour security and off street parking for visitors. It is just outside of the congestion zone.

Our team of skilled picture framers produce everything by hand to your exact specifications and have had many years of experience making bespoke picture frames and display cases that are strong and elegant, have an even beautiful finish, while complimenting the artwork. Within our framing department, we also offer a range of other services including canvas stretching, mount cutting, dry mounting and the fabrication of display cases and furniture (including cabinets, cases, plinths, display shelves, tables etc) .
