A picture frame can come in a variety of designs, from a minimalist sleek look, to a maximalist ornate gilded one. Each may encounter decorative losses to corners, ornament and designs on the surface, which we can help to restore.

To stabilise and restore losses to a frame, this can take the form of a number of things. It may be that the surface has become damaged and requires some repairs so that you can’t see it, or this might be an entire corner of a frame needs to be re-made! These forms of reintegration often are crucial to visually tie in the overall appearance of a framed artwork.

There are many different finishes, designs and appearances to a frame, most can be restored!
