Artwork Care
Since 2009 we have cared for paintings and artworks for private clients, artists and institutions. In our studio you’re welcome for stretching , framing , cleaning and varnishing — always with respect for the work’s original character.
Perfectly stretched to size
We professionally stretch paintings, canvases and textile works on wooden stretcher bars — both older paintings that have slackened and new canvases supplied on a roll.
New canvases on a roll — brought a piece from abroad or bought online? We stretch it tightly on a matching frame, with cross bars for extra stability where needed.
Re-stretching older works — we provide a new stretcher while respecting paint layers and patina.
Paintings, art & photos
A well-chosen frame completes the artwork. We offer classic frames and modern float frames in wood. Fully custom, with acid-free materials for long-term protection.
Paintings — from natural wood to gilded or matte black. We’re happy to advise on style and finish.
Photography, drawings & prints — custom framing with glazing options from clear to museum glass.
Careful surface cleaning
Over time, paintings can become dull due to dust, nicotine or grime. We clean with carefully selected methods that are safe for paint and varnish layers — always preceded by spot testing.
Colour revival & protection
A fresh varnish brings colours back to life and protects against ageing. We work with gloss, matte or satin varnish — matched to the desired look.
If necessary, we safely remove aged varnish before applying a new coat.
Professional advice & transport
Heirlooms, contemporary art or travel finds — every work receives the same care. Based on material, technique and condition, we provide non-binding advice on the best treatment.
- Free assessment by appointment
- Acid-free, durable materials
