meant £145 - not £1245 !

Hi

This one was 160 x 130 cm. Used Acrylic to limit weight - not to lower cost.

Charged considerably more than £1245 I must say !

Hi

Size meant weight was an issue so used Acrylic with UV protection.

Quite pleased with this - 300 year old Chinese Imperial Garment. Overall size of frame 1.5 x 1.3 Metres..
Garment simply hung from above...

Yep - Same for me - Wessex Fine Art.
Always do a good job

hi

actual holes and wood dust.

Would there not be holes already if the eggs had been laid?

Plan to reframe as a gesture of good will anyway but curious as to origin of the problem

Hi all just has a customer bring back a frame I did some 18 months ago. She was complaining that there was a white powdery substance settling in the frame. The mount had also warped and appeared to be mildly damp. She swears her house is dry and if anything - the artwork more likely to be damaged by...

Hi I use air for Matpro -120, Underpinner, Nail gun, Stapler and Tab Gun. Saves time and energy! I I bought Framers corner stapler and point driver. Lower end price range but do the job for a small '/ medium turnover business. Only issue I have with tab Gun is that the points don't lie as flat as I ...

Thanks you all!

Hi all Thank you all very much for your replies. Sorry I have been so tardy in looking at them! I probably didn't explain very well but as Robo concluded - we do not need to see the sides - just the whole of the front and back of the coin. It would seem that the best way remains sandwiching mount bo...

Hi Have a customer who wants two 2.5cm Diameter coins framed - in a double sides scenario- so that both sides can be seen. Have done this before by making a sandwich mount but problem with these is that the edge detail on on the the face and obverse of the coin is of prime importance and I cant cove...

Ok Thanks

Have a Centrado cat alogue to hand so will take a look

Hi all

Hope you can help.

Customer describes this as gold bamboo look. Picture not really great. Does anyone know of a moulding that could be described thus? Any help appreciated as usual!

Best regards

Hi all

Anyone know what this is? it is a blue / black colour around 2.3 mm across

any help appreciated!

Wow! Very skilful. Look fabulous!

Hi I have recently done one of these maps. They are not of any significant value - street art I think. I simply mounted using a standard sandwich mount and acid free hinges. The finished product obviously showed crease marks but that was all part of the look. I have a heatpress and offered the custo...

Thanks everyone. Will take a look. Hadn't been species that there would be shadow box style aluminium.

Cheers

Hi all Appreciate some advice. Have had a customer come in with some rare and expensive art works - of the modern art variety. They want to float mount the works - (deckled edges) but want aluminium frames because they want a thin / strong and contemporary look. First question is: Has anyone used al...
