  • Rising Mountboards are widely regarded as some of the best in the framing industry — especially for museum and conservation-grade framing — due to their exceptional material quality, archival standards, and colour consistency. They are 100% Cotton Rag Core, acid-free and alkaline buffered to resist pollutants. They are available in a range of neutral or darker tones which are colourfast and fade resistant.

  • Linen and fabric mounts can provide a subtle, natural texture that complements the artwork without overpowering it.

    At Frame London we specialise in linen mounting for conservation framing. We use our own specially selected linens and other archival, acid-free fabrics to ensure your artwork’s preservation and integrity. View some examples on our gallery pages.

  • If you would like a multi-aperture mount or even a unique shaped window, we can draw and cut bespoke shapes to suit.

  • All materials that come in contact with artwork must be acid-free, lignin-free, and pH neutral. This includes mountboards, backing boards, and any adhesives used in the framing process.
