Framing and conserving a Navajo Tapestry
This beautiful Navajo tapestry has been in our client’s family for years. We sewed it to a 4-ply mat and siliconed the mat to the acrylic. In order to not squish the tapestry and to conserve it we built shadowbox walls in the frame between the acrylic to create room. This custom frame is made from […]
Huge mouse trap from Cuba framed
Here is a custom frame job you don’t see everyday! We just finished framing this huge mousetrap from Cuba made from an old door in a welded steel frame! We really do get to work on the most interesting art here in our San Francisco frame shops!
San Francisco!
We are so proud to be a part of San Francisco and every time we get a San Francisco print to frame we are really happy! Here are two really cool midcentury modern San Francisco design prints framed by your San Francisco neighborhood frame shop! Did we mention San Francisco enough?
Wings of Desire
This Wings of Desire print deserved a special frame design! We used an ornate frame with a wing-like texture and a gold fillet to pick up on the colors and feel of this rad art film by Wim Wenders set in the divided Berlin.
Pop Art Feel for framed hand-beaded Resist art
Wishing everyone a good weekend! We just finished framing this beautiful custom hand-beaded piece! We floated it in a clean white floater frame to keep that modern pop art feel. Custom picture framing design from San Francisco!
Floater frame for a highly designed Aztec-esque painting
We framed this Aztec-esque painting in a distressed wooden floater frame to show the edges of the art work and play on. This way the geometric design on the edges of the painting are kept fully visible and the gap between art and frame creates a nice separation. That and so much more we can […]
A very special relief framed in a custom shadow box
This piece was a part of Carrie Fisher’s estate and was a gift to her and of her from the artist. We built a custom shadow box with linen mats and put an opening on the back of the frame to show the signature and date.
Museum Inspiration for the Holidays
What is better than a visit to see Art at a museum, get away from the daily routine and be inspired. Especially during the upcoming Holiday season it is a treat! The way these pieces of art are framed is very much how we frame your art too. Contemporary, clean and always in mind to […]
Another classic picture frame design – pie crust shapes and hand wrapped fabric mats!
We used hand wrapped fabric mats and metallic piecrust frames to add extra razzle dazzle to these great vintage ice skating photos! Hand wrapped fabric mats: It is really fun to play around with our large selection of fabrics and colors to choose from! We then use that choice to wrap a mat in the fabric. […]
Watercolor paintings from Burma
Look at this amazing work from Burma! These watercolor pieces have amazing detail so we used a thin walnut frame and a double thick mat to give them a clean look. Framed right here in San Francisco with solid wood from our friends in Colorado! This is what we love about custom picture framing: They […]
