Our framing advisors know that choosing the right glazing is crucial for every client’s artwork. Selecting the correct glazing not only enhances the appearance but also ensures the long-term protection. That’s why we offer UV protective glass, anti-reflective glass, museum grade glass, and a range of acrylic glazing options.

This service is especially valuable for high-value pieces that were previously framed or are being reframed by us, as it provides insights into items that may not have been examined outside of their frames before.
