Greetings!


Most people have at least one treasured item or image waiting to
be framed and displayed - a family memory tucked away in a closet or
drawer.

� A child's first finger painting
� A honeymoon photo from Paris
� Parents' wedding photo
� A limited-edition print
� A diploma, cap, and tassel
� ... The list goes on!









 

There are two essential reasons to frame your keepsakes.


The first is presentation; presentation is about the appearance factors- selecting frame parts of the style and color that create the most visually attractive display.

The second is preservation. Preservation is about keeping your framed treasures in their present condition. That involves secure, yet noninvasive, reversible support inside the frame and constructing a microenvironment to minimize environmental hazards.



For your keepsakes on display, preservation framing is the best protection against harmful light, temperature and humidity changes, airborne dust and chemical contaminants, insects, and mechanical damage. Preservation framing provides the best  long-term value for displaying your treasures.

We invite you to talk to our designers who can show you the many options available.  Something else that we do better than anyone else is that we capture the "Emotional" essence of the piece, not just the visual aspect.  Our creations always tell a story.
