We currently offer metal mouldings in various profiles and finishes and a selection of black as well as white wood mouldings in various profiles. All mouldings are cut to your size specifications and are priced by the linear foot, plus profile width allowances. Please stop by the studio to check out our options and to receive a quote.

We offer 4-ply Bainbridge mats in various grades cut to your specifications. Mat board is priced by the square foot and includes one window per mat. Additional windows incur an extra charge. Some colors or textures are also additional. We will give you a quote as necessary.

We cut glass to size as is applicable for your framing needs. Things to consider when choosing glass include display environment, size and strength of frame moulding, conservation needs, and transportability.

Print Mounting
Using pressure and heat, we can dry mount your photograph or artwork to a variety of substrates. Dry mounting keeps the art absolutely flat, which can make it more visually pleasing than other mounting methods. Dry mounting should be considered permanent. We will not dry mount irreplaceable works of art.
Priced per square foot, with a 2 S/F minimum charge per mat.
