Yes. Our framing studio is at 80 Spadina Avenue in downtown Toronto, and we frame for clients across Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough, Mississauga, and the wider GTA. You’re welcome to book an in-person consultation to review mouldings, mats, and glazing before committing.

Custom framing is priced by size, moulding, matting, and glazing choice, so a small print with standard glass and a large piece with museum glass sit at very different price points. We also offer a curated online framing range at a more accessible price using bulk-purchased mouldings.

Standard custom framing takes 5–10 business days. Specialty mouldings, object framing, and oversized pieces are quoted per project — tell us your deadline and we’ll confirm before starting.

Conservation framing uses acid-free materials throughout — 4-ply or 8-ply acid-free mats, archival backing, and UV-protective glazing — so nothing in contact with the artwork causes yellowing or deterioration. It’s the standard for original art, limited editions, and anything you intend to keep for generations.

A shadow box uses archival foam spacers to recess the artwork, creating depth between the glazing and the piece. It suits deckled-edge prints, canvas, textiles, and three-dimensional objects. Our float mount version showcases the artwork’s edges by floating it above a mat or backing.

Yes. Our object framing service preserves and displays items such as memorabilia, artifacts, jerseys, and textiles in deep shadow boxes, mounted with archival materials so the object is supported without damage.

Yes. We stretch both prints we produce and canvases supplied by clients, with a choice of stretcher depths and edge finishing options including gallery wrap and float frames for a finished gallery-ready presentation.

Standard glass suits everyday display. UV-protective glazing is recommended wherever a piece receives daylight. Anti-reflective museum glass gives the clearest view for valuable or gallery work. Non-glare acrylic is lighter and shatter-resistant, making it the safer choice for large or shipped pieces.
