Portland Custom Art Framing

Portland's Premier Solid Wood Frame Studio: Authentic Craftsmanship & Custom Art Framing

At our Portland frame studio, we believe in craftsmanship that stands the test of time. We only use 100% solid woods, none of that new-age, particleboard core, fake facade, fu-fu-faux stuff. Our locally-made hardwood art frames feature precision mitre joints, strengthened with wood splines for superior glue line support and durability.

Searching for custom picture framing that's truly unique? We can customize your solid wood frames to meet whatever your imagination can muster or budget will allow. Browse our "off the wall" gallery of handcrafted frame options to get inspired. Have a specific design in mind? Send us a photo of your artwork or concept, and our Portland woodworkers (Mathew) will transform your vision into reality.

For artists looking to cut on costs, we offer partially completed custom hardwood frames. We'll handle the precision woodworking, and you can take on the finishing touches – applying wood finish, fitting plexi, adding backing, mounting your art, and/ or installing hanging hardware. This collaborative approach provides museum-quality framing at accessible prices.
