At The Frame we have an extensive range of frames available to choose from, to suit a range of budgets
Made to measure framing
We only use the finest quality materials for our framing. All our mounts are cut on a state-of-the-art computerised Wizard 8500 mount cutter and use 100% acid free boards which are guaranteed against fading and safe on all artwork. All materials used are to conservation standards and we offer a choice of Standard or Art Glass depending on your personal preference.
Not only that, our Framers are the BEST! Between them, they have over 50 years of experience and produce work of the highest quality with an exceptional attention to detail. The fact they are known in the framing circles as “the framers framers” speaks volumes for their knowledge and experience in the art of framing.
We can frame a wide variety of artwork, tapestries and needlework, football shirts, medals…….the possibilities are endless.
Ready made frames
We also have a range of ready-made frames produced locally in Basingstoke. There are over 150 different styles and colours to choose from, with 50 sizes and prices starting at just £11.50. We also stock mounts in standard sizes, or we can have them cut to your specific requirements, to compliment your artwork.
What does framing cost?
Framing doesn't have to be expensive
It is always better to have a bespoke frame as it will fit your picture exactly, with the correct mounts and ratios to enhance the artwork beautifully. We have invested a lot of time researching the very best in composite frames, using modern materials and we challenge you to be able to tell the difference between these and others which are more expensive. This means we can frame to meet your budget.
It is difficult to price a frame without knowing the size and if it will need to be mounted etc, but we can frame A3 size from £32.00 so we hope this will give you a starting point. When you come in to see us, we will spend time listening to you and make suggestions to help you get just the right frame at the right price. We will then give you the quote for as many options as you have looked at. You can then to go away and think about what is best. You will never feel pressured into make a decision on the spot.
Do you only frame paintings?
Framing doesn't stop with pictures
In the past, we have framed: Painting, Photographs, Shoes/baby shoes, Military memorabilia, including medals & belts, 200-year-old samplers, Rugby shirts, Football shirts, Golf balls, Cricket balls, Poems. Swimming medals, dried flowers and a Harley Davidson… to name but a few!
With every framing project, we will ask about the room/interior where your picture will live. We take time to get to know you and your sense of style so we can advise you of all the options available.
