To frame or not to frame?
That is a question we hear a lot at CheshirePaint. Choosing artwork we know is a considered purchase and after you find a style you love and land on the perfect size for your space the idea of framing options can seem overwhelming.
For some, framing is essential and all that remains is to pick a colour. For others, framing is an additional they can live without, perhaps even preferring the raw finish of the edges and the paint which has spilled onto them.
We consider all artwork finished and complete without a frame at CheshirePaint but we do believe in the power of framing and the enhanced effect it produces. The benefits to adding a frame to your artwork is long and to ensure framing quality is as high as the artwork itself, we partner with expert framers we trust to deliver upon our high standards.
When you add framing to a CheshirePaint original, you can be certain it is framed in accordance with the Fine Art Trade Guild's conservation standards and with acid-free sustainable methods and materials. Framing is a way to preserve your artwork, adding longevity to your piece through its protective capabilities. This also allows your art to hold its value as collectors often prefer to purchase framed artwork.
We favour a floating frame at CheshirePaint and this option is what populates our framing options online. Should you have fallen in love with a piece but require a custom frame style or colour, simply contact the team and we will be able to collaborate with our expert craftsmen to deliver on your vision.
To conclude our exploration of framing, it all comes down to preference! The bold outline framing adds to artwork is a primary feature for some whereas other allow the artwork to do all the taking itself. By offering both here at CheshirePaint we are proud to be able to cater to art lovers of all kinds.
