ICAS Gallery is a distinguished company with over four decades of expertise in creative picture-framing solutions. Established in 1984, within a short period, it quickly emerged as a leading provider of bespoke framing solutions for artists, photographers, galleries, corporate companies, and individuals.

“At ICAS Gallery, we pride ourselves on our commitment to innovation in framing techniques and styles, ensuring that each frame is meticulously crafted to suit the artwork’s unique requirements. Our approach is marked by keen attention to detail, resulting in personalized and high-quality customer service. We strictly use conservation-grade materials in our framing solutions, which means we exclusively employ archival materials designed to safeguard and preserve artworks over time. Conservation materials prevent damage to artwork from environmental factors such as light, humidity, and pollution while accentuating its beauty and visual appeal. Our materials are acid-free, pH-neutral, and free of harmful chemicals that can cause deterioration or discolouration, thus ensuring the artwork remains pristine for many years”.

Yes, We can even handle large oversized framing – Mr & Mrs Covington return from their holidays in Egypt with a giant papyrus – a modern image of the Pyramids at night. We completed our framing service using a 70 mm flat natural wood profile custom stained to match their papyrus, protected and preserved behind perspex glass. The frame measured 230cm x 130cm (6ft 10″ x 3ft 10″) and weighed 22 kg. After completing our framing services, we visited their home to provide hanging service by fitting into their lounge.

DO YOU FRAME MEMORABILIA AND SPORTS SHIRTS?

Yes, over the years, we were fortunate to be asked to frame sports shirts from the world of Grand Prix Formula One: racing, football, cycling, rugby, tennis, cricket, and swimming. Each completed project poses unique challenges, but we try to create a frame that tells a story, including photos and historical references and select the best frame profile & mount style that both protects the memento and displays it at its best.

WHAT IS YOUR ADVICE ON A FRAMING & MOUNTING STYLE?

A well-designed frame with a mount style can complement your art and deliver the overall experience. We will guide you through various ways to mount your piece, each using different materials and a different overall finish.
Choosing the right colour tone and mount style often depends on the effect you seek, the type of art you are framing, and personal taste. A well-thought-out combination of frame profile, mount, and mounting style will enhance a photo, original art, print, or memorabilia and give the piece an authentic visual identity.
