The Invisible Hand Archival Framing

06/09/2024

Custom framing is what we do. We leave restoration to the experts, but there are some things we can do to preserve and protect pieces that have seen better days. Here's a print from the 1970's drymounted in our vacuum press with PH neutral adhesive and materials, mounted, matted, and framed behind conservation glass to keep it looking its best for another fifty years or more.

Starting tomorrow, January 1, 2024, The Invisible Hand is merging with ARTFRAMES!!!

Some of you know I have been the acting manager at Artframes for the past two years. Tomorrow we will be one! Of course you can still expect the same quality work and service from me as always, and I will have hundreds of new choices in moulding and matboards for consideration for your next framing project. Come see us during business hours at 4821 W. 6th Street suite J right between The Sandwich Bowl and Big Biscuit. The frame shop has been there going on 24 years. I'm very proud to continue its legacy and plan to continue to provide quality, custom framing and matting long into the future!
