We’ve saved the best to last

A handcrafted frame can transform an artwork from something simply ‘displayed’ into something truly exceptional.

We are well known for our specialisation in hand-finished frames, creating bespoke finishes that cannot be achieved with mass-produced mouldings alone. Each frame is individually finished by hand, allowing us to create unique colours, textures and decorative effects that perfectly complement both the artwork and the surroundings.

From elegant painted finishes and subtle distressed effects to traditional gilding and decorative detailing, hand-finishing offers complete creative freedom. Whether you’re looking for a contemporary frame with a bespoke colour match or a traditional finish inspired by antique designs, we can create a frame tailored specifically to your artwork.

Hand-finished frames are particularly popular for original paintings, exhibition pieces and statement artworks where presentation plays a vital role. By carefully balancing colour, texture and finish, we create frames that enhance the artwork while maintaining harmony with the space in which it will be displayed.

Every finish is applied with care and attention to detail here in our Dorset workshop, combining traditional techniques with modern craftsmanship. The result is a truly bespoke frame that reflects the individuality of the artwork it surrounds.

Whether you’re seeking a subtle contemporary finish or a richly decorative statement frame, our hand-finished framing service offers a level of personalisation and craftsmanship that sets your artwork apart and sets us apart from most framing companies.
