We have just framed these two Kukri knives which were a gift from our customer’s friend.
We needed a deep frame with spacers all around to hold the glass away from them. Our customer chose a green brushed velvet effect mount, which we put to the sides as well. This has been framed with art glass, which is why there is minimal reflection showing, and the whole thing framed in a walnut frame.
The original spelling and meaning can only be instated by the word khukuri. Kukri is the misspelled word. The khukuri is the national weapon of Nepal, traditionally serving the role of a basic utility knife for the Nepali-speaking Gurkhas, and consequently is a characteristic weapon of the Nepali Army.

Landings Hotel, Biggin Hill Airport

We were asked to print and frame 10 large black & white photographs for the Landing Hotel at Biggin Hill Airport.

They look stunning on the wall.

We recently printed and framed a series of very large photographs for the new Landings Hotel, Biggin Hill Airport.

We have just framed this collection of photographs of Floyd Mayweather Jnr, from his visit to the Peacock Gym in London in 2009.

The main central photograph is signed by Floyd Mayweather Jnr and there is even a photo of him signing it.

We have framed them in a multi aperture mount with a dedication at the bottom.

In a black square profiled frame, and a black mount with a crisp white bevelled edge, the photographs really stand out.

The names of Sir Henry Cooper, Sugar Ray Leonard, Frank Bruno, Prince Naseem Hamed, Lennox Lewis and Floyd Mayweather jr provide just a snapshot of the multitude of kings of the ring who have donned the gloves and stepped between the ropes in London E16.

At Inspirations Framing we have over 25 years experience dealing with artists and preparing their artwork for exhibitions in the UK and internationally.

We undestand the issues with transporting artwork and the need for inexpensive, robust framing that shows their artwork to the best advantage, but will not add a fortune to the price for their customers who may wish to choose a different frame at a later date.

These frames are for London based artist John Govett, who paints on board to a range of set sizes. This enables us to batch produce frames that he can easily fit completed artworks into, ready for display.

By choosing a solid wood frame, they are robust and can be transported to and from exhibitions relatively safely and can be reused if desired.

This also means that John has a ready supply of frames and awaiting framing to be completed prior to a show will not be a time restraint and takes away one level of stress from any pre-show jitters!

I should point out that the photo shows one of our framers, Simon, whilst working on John's frames, and not John himself!

Reverse Mounted Photo on Acrylic Block

Using optically clear adhesive film and our powerful rollers, we can “reverse mount” photographs to acrylic blocks.

In this instance, our customer wanted a photograph of a relative taking part in a swimming gala, mounted to the rear of a 20mm deep acrylic block for hanging on a wall.

Once the photo was mounted, we then mounted an MDF block to the rear, with 2 keyhole hangers, which will allow the image to be hung on a wall, with the MDF holding the acrylic away from the wall giving a shadow effect

Lewis was Best Man at his best friend’s wedding.

He wanted to display his mementos from the special day (buttonhole flowers, speech, cufflinks, place settings and his Best Man’s Speech)

He chose a white grain deep box frame to accommodate the flowers. simple white mount to show off the items.

Fabulous!

We recently framed these beautiful highly colouful, handmade tiles that were bought by our customers whilst they were away on holiday in Turkey.

We framed them straight into an elegant soft gold frame.

What a nice holiday memento.

We recently framed these wonderful paintings by artist Ellie Caetti for her exhibition “A Year in the Bailiwick”, which was held at Green & Stone's gallery in Chelsea.

White float (or "tray") frames allow the colourful paintings to pop and look stunning on the walls.

Ellie says, on her Instagram page "My solo show of oil paintings from the last year spent travelling between London and Guernsey.

I will never tire of the magical light of the island as it bounces off the glittering sea, illuminating everything in its path".

We have just framed this spoon which was a gift from our customer's best friend, with her favourite quote engraved in the bowl -

"Never let anyone dull your shine".

Our customer chose a deep white frame with a deep rebate, with the glass set back from the face of the frame. A dark blue mount sets off the silver of the spoon nicely.

Beautiful!

We recently framed this beautiful portrait of Arlo, a Bernese Mountain Dog. He is a real gentle giant, who came with his owner when they visited the workshop to decide on their framing options.

A dark wood frame pale outer mount were chosen, along with a 5mm inner mount in a tan colour to match the tan colour in Arlo's fur.

Perfect!
