|  Bourlet
has been making frames for over 200 years and remains
a master reference for frame production and restoration
in the art world today. Although the techniques and
materials used in the frame making process have not
changed since the early days, Bourlet has tweaked and
adapted these techniques to the more progressive and
modern demand requiring frames spanning from pre-raphaelite
frame styles, to art-nouveau and more futuristic designs,
thus seamlessly meeting the historical and esthetical
qualities of the painting, print or photograph they
contain. These qualities are not limited to the content
they will be married to, since a client may approach
Bourlet staff with preconcieved ideas and concepts they
might prefer and one can be assured that the result
will always be striking and more than satisfying.
For more details on the techniques
and materials used in the framing process please be
sure to visit the restoration,
finishes
and carving
sections of this site.

Rendell and her wonderfully skilled staff have been
working from the atelier on Connaught street for many
years now and have proven many times over that the Bourlet
framing business is still well and truly a source of
customer satisfaction, with clients ranging from museums
and national institutions to private clients. Any client
with a desire to frame a beautiful or stylish picture
can be sure that the Bourlet staff know-how and expertise
will systematically shine through and demonstrate that
the choice of frames at hand and the techniques employed
will most certainly produce a remarkably fine balance
and composite between the the finished frame and the
painting, picture or etching contained within.
