The endpoint of art is to invoke feelings, ideas and opinions from the viewers. That is why great artworks become more valuable as they grow older. Naturally, conserving it today is the wisest decision you can take if you are one lucky owner of any old artwork.

For one, custom framing protects your old artwork from deterioration which causes your piece to look less vibrant than before. Custom framing has been evolving and has become a creative way for you to enhance your artwork while also protecting it from deterioration.

Our Recommendation

Unlike ready-made frames with a set of designs that limit you from exploring and showcasing your creativity, custom framing allows you to pick the design that matches your style and space, the mat board option you prefer to incorporate, and other custom framing features like conservation glass and customised plaques.

When it comes to custom framing old artwork, considering the shade and colour palette of your art should be taken into account. The classic choice often falls with black and white picture frames that complement any colour palette and styling design. Metallic picture frames like gold and silver can make your piece look luxurious and classic.

Our recommendation is to experiment with custom-cut matboards that can match your artwork. Whatever your moulding design and colour mix you are after, you can pair it with a custom cut mat board specifically for your artwork. Custom-cut matboards for your old artwork create a focal point and will make it more prominent in any room you choose to hang it.

Our professional and friendly framers at Mahoneys Framing deeply understand how eager you are to achieve the best-fitted custom frame for your old artwork. If you need assistance, our ears are wide open to help you pick the perfect style, colour, or texture that works best for your most adored piece.
