Bespoke Framing & Mounting
Tailored to Perfection
The core of Nick Holyman Framing lies in creating custom frames that perfectly complement your artwork, photography, or memorabilia. We work closely with you, offering one-on-one consultations to understand your vision and the unique requirements of your piece. We meticulously select from a wide array of high-quality mouldings and mount boards, ensuring the ideal aesthetic and the highest level of protection. Every bespoke frame is individually crafted to enhance your item’s beauty and ensure its longevity.
Canvas Stretching & Tray Frames
Modern Presentation
Give your canvas artworks the professional finish they deserve. We provide expert canvas stretching, ensuring your painting or print is perfectly taut and wrinkle-free. For a contemporary look that allows your canvas to float within the frame, consider our elegant tray frames (also known as float frames). These frames offer a minimalist profile that complements the artwork without distracting from it, providing a sleek, gallery-style presentation.
Box Framing
Dimension and Depth for Your Treasures
Do you have sports memorabilia, medals, historical artifacts, or other cherished three-dimensional objects you wish to display?
Ideal for items with a three-dimensional quality or those that require space between the artwork and the glazing, box framing creates a deep, protective enclosure. We specialize in creating bespoke shadow boxes and custom enclosures that protect your valuable items from dust and damage while showcasing them beautifully. This versatile framing style is perfect for preserving and displaying a wide variety of items that can’t be mounted flat, providing both protection and an impressive visual depth. Each design is meticulously planned to accommodate the specific dimensions and sensitivities of your unique collectible.
Textile & Tapestry Framing
Gentle Preservation
Framing delicate textiles and tapestries requires a specialised approach to ensure their preservation without damage. We provide expert methods for mounting and framing these fabric artworks, using appropriate conservation-grade materials and techniques that respect the integrity of the threads and dyes. Your textile pieces will be beautifully presented and protected for generations.
Natural Wood Frames & Finishes
Timeless Beauty
For classic elegance and enduring appeal, we work with a selection of beautiful natural wood frames. These frames can be finished with traditional waxes, stains, or oils to enhance the wood’s inherent beauty and create a truly timeless look. The natural grains and tones add warmth and authenticity, complementing a wide range of artworks and interior styles.
Hand Finishing
A Unique Artisan Touch
For a truly unique and bespoke touch, we offer premium hand-finished frame options. These include painting, staining and waxing techniques applied directly to the frame. Hand finishing provides an artisan quality that truly enhances the frame to fully complement the artwork it holds.
