Services
Riverbourne Fine Art was established in 2007 by Ashley Wallman. Based at 222 Godstone Road in Whyteleafe, Surrey, Riverbourne Fine Art specialises in the supply of bespoke picture framing services. Owner of the business Ashley said 'I aim to provide my customers with advice and guidance when they arrive at my gallery with their framing project(s) in order to obtain the most practical and aesthetically pleasing results.
Here at Riverbourne Fine Art we are bespoke picture framers who produce hand crafted picture frames in our on-site gallery workshop. Every picture framing project is discussed fully with our customers to ascertain conservation requirements, frame style, mount and glass combinations to suit the artwork and the room in which the frame will be hung.
Box framing is a technique used to space the mounted artwork or item away from the glass by using slips/fillets that create the required space between the framed item and the glass above. Riverbourne Framing make box frames to suit customers' requirements for both aesthetic and practical reasons.
All of our shirt frames (football, rugby and cycling shirts for example) are produced using a box frame approach, this is for practical reasons as it is important to create a space between the shirt face and the underside of the frame glass.

Canvas stretching is a regular request from Riverbourne Framing's customers. Canvases come in many forms, shapes and sizes from printed canvases to painted canvases on differing canvas types. Riverbourne framing will advise on the most suitable stretcher moulding to suit the size and type of canvas supplied (stretcher mouldings come in many sizes and shapes).
If you wish to purchase an item of art please express your interest by email to ashley@riverbournefineart.co.uk making sure to state the art title. Please note any work purchased should be paid by bank transfer in advance of collection from the gallery. We do not post or parcel delivery artworks or prints promoted on this site as we prefer customers to see the artwork in person prior to taking it away.

Fantastic quality, and professional - and pleasant - service. Having used others in the area, Ashley and Riverbourne are a level above.
We took 5 pictures in to be framed and Ashley spent time working with us to get just the right look, including providing advice around the glass etc (the high quality glass is almost invisible). He then checked up when framing on an element that needed revising, and the end result was perfect.
Thanks Ashley - we will be using you again in the future.

Fabulous service, brilliant advice, such wonderful care and attention to our picture and has made it look stunning. Even helped advise on how best to hang it and threw in the right type of picture hook. Ashley was really patient and helpful, we felt like we had 5 star treatment. I would unreservedly recommend Ashley to any one needing a picture framed.

Fantastic job by Ashley from Riverbourne. As you can see from the photograph Ashley’s craftsmanship has really brought my print to life.
When I first approached the shop in Whyteleafe, I wasn’t too sure what I wanted, however, I had a consultation with Ashely where he guided me through the type of frame and mount size suitable for my print. We looked at different mount sizes and discussed the best frame colour to match my lounge. I was impressed with his advice and I’m even more impressed with the outcome. In lockdown I developed a bit of an obsession for buying prints and artwork, so Ashely

I bought a print I fell in love with while on holiday, unfortunately when it arrived it was damaged, I googled local framers and came accross riverbourne, I took my damaged frame and Ashley was so helpful with his advice. I left my frame and print in his capable hands. I am absolutely delighted with the framed item. I upgraded a lot from the frame the artist used and I can honestly say I'm glad it arrived damaged, because the job Ashley has done on it gives it the wow factor it deserves

With picture framing, you get what you pay for, and Ashley is highly skilled, dedicated and passionate about what he does, so you get great results. He sorted out a picture a previous framer had completely messed up, + another one where his guidance was invaluable in getting the right result. Great service all round, and I will be going back.

Visited Riverbourne Fine Art today for the first time and was extremely satisfied with the whole experience. The man who served me was polite and professional. I was recommended having my artwork framed here by a good friend who has had artwork framed. The price charged was very fair for the time to complete the work and the quality of the products used.. Would highly recommend.
