Unmounted
Suitable if your image has a existing border and just requires being framed straight to the edge.(Dry mounting available to make sure your image stays flat against the glass.)
Window Mount
A cut out window sits on top of your image creating a clean border around your image.(Multiple windows can be cut if needed.)
Float Mount
Suitable if your image has a 'deckled' or torn edge, its is fixed to a mountboard showing all the edges of your image. (This is a reversible method)
Raised Float Mount
Very similar to the standard float mount but your image is raised normally 5mm away from the mountboard creating a shadow around your image and giving it a floating effect. (Needs a frame with at least 25mm depth to work best.)
Canvas Stretching
We can stretch canvases to any size needed. Using standard stretcher bars or custom made oversize stretcher bars. Please use the contact us page with your sizes for a quote.
Certain pieces may need dry mounting to help achieve one of the above looks. (We would never do this without your prior permission.) Please choose a suitable frame for the above choices. If you don’t want the glass directly on your image or you are looking at the float or raised float option. we suggest a frame with a minimum depth of 25mm. Check out our frames section to view some of the pre-finished frames we offer. Along with our raw woods and hand finished frames. We can finish our raw woods with various stains, waxes or oils. We will also hand finish picture frames if you have a particular paint brand you would like to use.
