Aluminum

For a sleek modern finish we also offer aluminium frames. What sets our frames apart from others is that all our aluminium frames have a inside depth of 10mm, which also allows you to present floating works.

Joinery

A good frame starts with strong corners. Although all our frames are provided with a dovetail joint, there are many other options such as splines, lap joints,...

Stain and lacquer

Each of our wooden profiles can be completely colored to your liking. Both with stain that highlights the wood grain or with a lacquer that provides complete coverage
