Très belle qualité

Très beau cadre. Très satisfaite de mon achat

The frame is stunning and well-made. It was wrapped so nicely — the crisp paper and thoughtful thank-you card made it feel like opening a present. A lovely experience from start to finish

The presentation of this frame is moderately posh. With a little full-colour insert about the brand, that has a Mayfair address, it’s clearly going for a highbrow tone- the kind of frame you’d use for real art, not for jigsaws. However, I’d say that the frame is absolutely fine, but not a Harrods-level item. The manufacturing quality is fine, and on the one I got, there are no paintwork issues, splinters or anything like that. The mounting points are sensible rather than generous. But it has a slightly lightweight feel to it, and while the perspex is nice and clear with a little shimmer to it, it’s obviously not glass. As such, it doesn’t feel like it does anything to distinguish itself from more prosaic brands you might find in The Range or similar places. But to say “however” again… I’d also have to admit that at time of writing, it doesn’t price itself substantially higher than that kind of shop either. The price for a 50cm by 70cm frame is fairly typical for those and for this site, not out-and-out competitive but a reasonable, middle-of-the-road price. As a matter of personal taste, the black border on this frame is a little bit thick for my usual taste. A soft black border can compliment the white space around the art to nice effect, but in my opinion excessively wide black borders can be a bit oppressive, and a bit too eye-catching in their own right, and that’s the case with this. That’s subjective of course- perhaps if you’re mounting something that you want attention to be drawn to, this frame could help. Behind the fairly plush branding, it’s a solid four-star item.
