Custom Framing
Get museum quality and great design at affordable prices.
At Baas Framing Studio, Seattle, we create beautiful custom matting and framing solutions – shadowboxes, rustic frames, vintage-style frames and modern metal and acrylic frames. Bring your design ideas or let our experienced team show you some creative options. We can problem-solve complex projects or help you simply get a new piece of art onto the wall.
Large works such as this 85” wide Chinese ink painting with silk border post special framing challenges. An elegant closed-corner frame with gold-leaf lip and non-glare Conservation Plexiglas provide the perfect balance of UV protection and style.
Baas Framing Studio features a broad selection of framing choices for every style and budget, including Larson Juhl frames, Nielsen frames, Picture Woods, Roma frames, 100% acid-free cotton Crescent and Bainbridge mats. We offer museum quality conservation materials to protect your artwork from damage by light, dust and moisture. Custom acrylic boxes, fabric liners and welded steel frames are made-to-order.
Count on our staff to design unique mounting, matting and framing solutions for all of your needs – treasured objects, textiles, photographs, posters, prints, diplomas, paintings and collectibles.
