Framing Process Measue the photo Calculate the mount sizes Prepare the mounts We use specialised equipment at all stages to ensure the finished result are to the highest standard.

Again using a specialised molding cutter we cut the frame to size ensuring a neat fit The  pieces are underpinned together at the corners creating a strong frame  Thereafer the glass is then cut to size, cleaned and polished The glass, mount, picture, and frame are then assembled backed and taped to Guild Standards. D-rings are then applied to the frame and an appropiate lenght of framing cord attached.   The finished product is always completed with the greatest care and protective wrapped before leaving our workshop
