YOUR LOCAL CREATIVE FRAMING SERVICE
For over 40 years, since opening our doors in 1984, ICAS Gallery has been helping people showcase their favourite memories and artworks. With decades of experience, we know how to create beautiful, high-quality frames for artists, photographers, galleries, businesses, and anyone who wants their special pieces to look their best.
At ICAS Gallery, our mission is simple: we want to make your pictures look amazing and keep them safe for years to come. Our talented team employs professional techniques, including museum-quality mounting and UV-protective glass, as well as meticulous hand-finishing, ensuring every frame is just right. We always use safe, long-lasting materials to protect your artwork or memorabilia from fading or damage.
We’re here to help you find the perfect frame, from selecting the ideal style to ensuring your treasured piece is protected. With our friendly advice and custom designs, each frame is more than just protection—it’s a way to celebrate your memories and bring your story to life.
You name it, and we frame it!
We frame original artworks, ranging from contemporary to traditional paintings in oil, watercolour, pastel, and sketch drawings; conservation-mounting and framing pictures; collectable, limited-edition prints and precious, sentimental photographs; sports shirts; and prize awards to certificates.
DO YOU FRAME MEMORABILIA AND SPORTS SHIRTS?
Yes, over the years, we have been fortunate to be asked to frame sports shirts from the world of Grand Prix Formula One, as well as racing, football, cycling, rugby, tennis, cricket, and swimming. Each completed project poses unique challenges, but we strive to create a frame that tells a story, incorporating photos and historical references, and select the best frame profile and mount style that both protects the memento and displays it at its best.

HOW DO YOU MAKE DECISIONS ON A FRAMING & MOUNTING STYLE?
A well-designed frame with a suitable mount style can complement your art and enhance the overall experience. We will guide you through various methods for mounting your piece, each utilising different materials and achieving a distinct overall finish.
Choosing the right colour tone and mount style often depends on the effect you seek, the art you are framing, and personal taste. A well-thought-out combination of frame profile, mount, and mounting style will enhance a photo, original artwork, print, or memorabilia, giving the piece a unique and authentic visual identity.
Our average turnaround is 7-10 days, and we can offer a 24hrs – 48 hrs picture framing. ( Subject to stock availability for an optional extra).

Stretching & mounting of tapestries, cross-stitch, canvas paintings & papyrus framing;
CANVAS STRETCHING We can stretch canvases to any size needed. We use standard stretcher bars or custom-made oversized stretcher bars.
Do you handle large, oversized bespoke framing? Click for more
Yes, we can handle large, oversized framing. We had a client, Mr & Mrs Covington, return from their holidays in Egypt with an extra giant papyrus – a modern image of the Pyramids at night. We completed our framing service using a 70 mm flat natural wood profile, custom-stained to match the papyrus, and protected and preserved behind perspex glass. The frame measured 230cm x 130cm (6ft 10″ x 3ft 10″) and weighed 22 kg. After completing our framing services, we visited their home to provide hanging services, fitting them into their lounge.
