We are one of Carlisle's oldest established business with the present owner occupying more than 38 years experience. Our showroom boasts a varied selection of artwork from local artists with pieces for sale to purchase. I am passionate about my job and enjoy every aspect of what is entailed. From meeting the customer, discussing their needs, offering advice, framing the artwork and finally welcoming the customer back to collect their order.
We provide a complete bespoke picture framing service, offering expert and professional advice in a personal and friendly manner. We pride ourselves in giving our honest opinion in order to gain the correct mount and frame combination to compliment and enhance the artwork.

Services
We buy our framing (moulding) from three of the biggest suppliers in the UK and have more than 350 samples on display. We have numerous catalogues offering a wider selection of mouldings, of which samples are available. The moulding is delivered in 3 metre lengths where it is cut and joined together in our workshop.
The mount, as well as lifting the glass from the artwork and complimenting the colour, gives breathing space between the artwork and the frame. Using a double mount on a piece of artwork is an alternative way to increase the colour lift. This consists of a neutral shade on the top with a slight inset of colour underneath, which both compliments the artwork and offers more depth.
