From Rembrandt to Picasso, from Manet to Monet, we have framed some of the most significant pieces in the history of art.
Our work isn't just featured in museums and galleries worldwide; you'll find them in elite private collections, palaces, and even on board superyachts.
Every frame is custom-made for the artwork it elevates. Our small and dedicated team have the highest attention to detail, with hundreds of years of elite craftsmanship experience between them.
Founded by John Davies and now enriched by his family, quality and excellence are our guiding principles.
Can I get a custom frame made?
Every frame we create is custom-made, tailored to the specific dimensions and aesthetic preferences of our clients.
Our frames are crafted from traditional materials, including fine hardwoods and real gold leaf, with a strong emphasis on sustainability where possible. We employ a range of traditional techniques in our crafting process, such as hand carving and French polishing, to ensure each piece is of unparalleled quality and uniqueness.
No matter the challenge, we pride ourselves on our ability to deliver where others might not, embracing projects of all sizes and complexities.
Do you ship frames worldwide?
Yes, we ship our frames worldwide, catering to clients of all calibers, including the most prestigious art collectors and institutions.
Our capability extends to delivering frames of all shapes and sizes, ensuring your unique requirements are met with precision and care, regardless of your location on the globe.
How do I send you something to frame?
You can reach out to us via email at hello@johndaviesframing.com or call us on +442079307977 to begin. For those in central London, we conduct face-to-face consultations during our frequent visits for a more personalized experience.
Additionally, our commitment to excellence leads us to travel globally for projects that demand our on-site presence, ensuring we deliver the bespoke service your artwork deserves.
What is the lead time for a custom frame?
Our standard lead time is 6 weeks, which allows us to maintain the high quality our clients expect. However, we understand that some projects may require faster delivery. In such cases, we are often able to accommodate shorter timelines, including delivering frames within days when necessary.
Please be aware that expedited service may be limited by the specifics of the project and may involve additional costs. We're committed to meeting your needs and will discuss all options and implications with you.
Where are you based?
Based in Norfolk, UK, our workshops benefit from a region rich in artisanal heritage, crucial for sourcing the skilled talent that crafts our frames.
Although we closed our St James, London showroom due to COVID, our commitment to our clients in the city hasn't waned. We regularly visit London for consultations with galleries, museums, auction houses, and private individuals, offering bespoke framing services directly to their doors, eliminating the need for them to travel to us.
Which frames are best for mirrors and home decor?
The ideal frame depends on the ambiance you're aiming for, whether it's the grandeur of a stately home, the sleekness of a New York penthouse, the charm of a boutique hotel foyer, or a statement piece for your hallway.
While most frames can be transformed into stunning mirrors, we recommend discussing your specific vision with us so we can bring it to life effectively.
