The story of Florentine craftsmanship, from origination to production.

 

We are one of those rare businesses that exclusively designs and manufactures its own products. To sustain originality and the very highest standards of workmanship quality we have, for 15 years, steadily improved and sought to perfect every stage of our production. We automate where appropriate to achieve reasonable volume but some jobs simply have to be carried out by hand, using learned skills, experience, keen hand-to-eye coordination and plain hard work!

Handmaking a frame

Most 'standard' picture frames are indelibly 'fixed' in their finish. Adjusting, improving or generally altering their appearance is in most cases impossible, at best not easy. They also (unless it's of Antique origin), rarely offer the chance to be restored. They may also suffer from quickly style 'dating'. We try to design into our frames a certain timelessness; Due to the construction from solid natural wood owners can in course of time 'adjust' the appearance to suit their changed decor. In years to come, if suitably inspired, you can even change what is inside!
