Be Inspired
We believe every piece deserves thoughtful attention — whether valuable, historical, or simply meaningful to you.
Whether it’s a contemporary artwork, a treasured family photograph, an antique frame, a textile, a cultural object, or something deeply personal, every project is approached with care, sensitivity, and meticulous attention to detail.
At Artis Pura, framing is more than presentation. It is preservation, storytelling, and craftsmanship — creating a frame that honours both the history of the piece and the home it will become part of.
Our Archerfield workshop specialises in custom framing, restoration, conservation, gilding, and hand-finished framing solutions for artworks and objects that deserve to be cared for thoughtfully.

Ancillary services
Some projects require expertise beyond the workshop. We work with a trusted network of local specialists to offer a range of complementary services, making it easier to manage your project from start to finish.
Good framing protects more than appearance
A frame should do more than look beautiful. It should also protect the artwork inside, allowing it to be enjoyed not just today, but for many years to come
Every project at Artis Pura is designed with both presentation and longevity in mind. From the choice of mountboard and backing materials to glazing, mounting methods, and finishes, every decision plays a part in protecting the artwork from light, moisture, pollutants, and the natural effects of ageing.
Not every piece requires museum-grade conservation, but every piece deserves thoughtful consideration. I'll always explain the options, talk through the advantages of different materials, and help you decide what best suits your artwork, your home and your budget. Because good framing isn't just about how a piece looks when it leaves the workshop. It's about how it will look years from now. From family heirlooms and fine art to band posters and contemporary pieces — we craft frames with care, creativity, and a personal touch.

Restoring beauty,
history, and integrity.
Sensitive restoration can preserve both the appearance and story of a piece without compromising its character.
Every mark tells part of a story. Restoration is about preserving that story — not erasing it.
Over time, artworks and frames naturally experience wear, damage, fading, staining, or structural deterioration. Our restoration work is approached with restraint and respect — carefully stabilising, cleaning, repairing, and reviving pieces while preserving their original integrity wherever possible.
From antique frames and water damage to torn paper, ageing mounts, and surface deterioration, every restoration project is assessed individually and treated with long-term preservation in mind.
A studio built around
craftsmanship and care.
We believe every piece deserves thoughtful attention — whether valuable, historical, or simply meaningful to you.
Artis Pura was founded on a love of craftsmanship, art, and preservation. Our approach is personal, collaborative, and detail-oriented, combining years of framing experience with conservation-minded techniques and a deep respect for the objects entrusted to us.
We take the time to understand the piece, its context, and how it will live within a space. From subtle contemporary framing to ornate restoration work, each project is carefully considered to achieve a result that feels timeless, balanced, and true to the work itself.
Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, we guide clients through materials, finishes, proportions, and presentation options to create framing that feels resolved, intentional, and enduring.
A thoughtful process,
guided personally.
Framing and restoration can feel overwhelming — we’re here to make the process simple, collaborative, and approachable.
