What is conservation framing?
A professional framing method designed to protect and preserve artwork, photographs, documents, and memorabilia from damage over time. It uses archival-quality materials and techniques that help prevent fading, discoloration, moisture damage, and deterioration.
Typical conservation framing includes:
- Acid-free mats and backing
- UV-protective glass or acrylic
- Archival mounting methods that avoid damaging the artwork
- Protective sealing from dust and environmental exposure
It’s especially recommended for original artwork, valuable prints, family heirlooms, certificates, textiles, and sentimental pieces you want to preserve for years to come.
