For 40 years, the team at Patrick Ireland Frames has made and hand-finished every frame at our workshop in East Sussex. Today we are proud to supply our bespoke frames and mirrors to some of the UK's most influential interior design studios and hotel groups, as well as directly to private clients, collectors, artists and curators.
Our team of frame makers and finishers are more than just highly skilled; they're committed to working with the creativity, innovation and precision embodied by the Patrick Ireland name. In contrast to many framers, we design, make and finish all our frames in-house at our workshop. Each frame starts life as a plain timber moulding, before being built to the desired size and prepared for its bespoke finish.

The framing and finishing of a frame is usually determined by what you are framing or by its surroundings. In the case of the picture or mirror, its age, style and colouring will all influence the decision. In the case of surroundings, this may dictate the colouring and finish, or require the frame to make a statement within an interior design concept.
As well as the frame profile and finish of your frame, the style in which you decide to have it framed can also completely transform the final look. Below you can see the most popular styles of framing, but if you need any help or advice we're here to help work out what will help bring your artwork to life.
A mount can make a huge difference to the final appearance of a framed piece of art and it's important to have a variety of options at your disposal. We'll be on hand to help you choose the right one from our collection, which ranges from Conservation mounts to hand-drawn wash line mounts. Linen and fabric wrapped mounts are a perfect way to add texture and depth to a piece of artwork.
