BFA1971 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Hi Everyone, Would anyone be able to recommend an original comic art framer in London, UK? I am really hesitant to take my art to a regular framer! Thank you so much for any leads in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmboyuk Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Pure and Applied is a well regarded framing store on Bermondsey High Street - almost opposite The White Cube - that does conservation framing. I've had good work from them in the past. Not necessarily the cheapest option - although I don't recall them being all that expensive - but I guess it depends what you're framing, and what level of reassurance you require. https://www.pureandapplied.co.uk Get Marwood & I 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will contact them ASAP. I really appreciate it! It is a Neal Adams Piece and so I will take your advice and check them out! I need a lot of reassurance tbh!!

New School Fool Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) Hi @Ghazi, it's always nice to find a fellow collector from the city you live in this forum. I was under the impression that a majority of people here are from the U.S. Anyway, there's a framer I can throughly recommend. I haven't used them to frame my comic art yet but they have created many bespoke frames for my other (contemporary) art purchases. They're called Frame Land and are located about half way down Brick Lane. The guy is very competitive, the prices are great and I'm always pleased with his work. https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tZP1zcsSa8wzCjKNmC0UjWoMLEwNzNMTjIzTkkxSk60MLcyqEgzMjM2SExMMU00SjRPNDLz4korSsxNVchJzEsBAFjgEvI&q=frame+land&oq=Frame+lan&aqs=chrome.1.0i355i457j46i175i199j0l2j69i57j0l2j46i175i199.3015j0j9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Edited October 24, 2020 by Shin-Kaiser Twanj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you ever so much! I imagine there can't be too many of us on these boards.... we might all try to get together at the pub once this crazy pandemic is over!
