Objects & Memorabilia

Creative, custom-built display solutions for unusual, fragile, and deeply personal objects. To inspire people that just about ANYTHING can be framed.

A sporting cap worn by a legend. A grandfather's saw wrapped in the same burlap sack he carried for decades. A piece of rope that once saved a life. An autograph book filled with fading signatures. A beaded flapper bag, an ancient arrowhead, a seahorse discovered on a memorable journey, a carved Braille panel that must still be touched and explored by the vision-impaired.

Three-dimensional framing is one of the most challenging and rewarding aspects of my work. Unlike a painting or photograph, objects rarely come with flat surfaces, predictable shapes, or obvious mounting points. Each piece demands its own solution.

At Artis Pura, I approach these projects as a balance of creativity, engineering and conservation. The goal is always to support the object securely while preserving its integrity and allowing its story to remain front and centre. Some pieces can be safely adhered using conservation-approved methods; others require custom-built timber supports, hidden brackets, Perspex mounts, or entirely bespoke display structures designed specifically for that object.

"From sporting memorabilia and collectables to artefacts, curiosities and the wonderfully unexpected, we enjoy finding creative ways to display three-dimensional objects while protecting them for years to come. If it means something to you, we'll find a way to frame it."

  • If you want to talk to the absolute best framer in Brisbane, ARTIS PURA is where you need to go. Honestly can't sing their praises enough! I'm so, so happy with the result. Every little detail is perfect, from the flawless conservation glass & pure cotton mounting, down to little felt pads on the corners so it doesn't scratch my wall.
