The Framed Feather is a Custom Framing workshop in Boston, Bellville, Cape Town. It was established in 2000 and is managed by owner Ilse Nieman, a professional artist and a picture-framer with 16 years experience. [Google: South African Artists].
The Framed Feather specializes in custom made framing. Besides traditional framing, any three dimensional objects can be framed in box-frames – sealed or unsealed (with a door). Sport achievement medals, clothing, sport equipment, shells and fossils – we have seen it all! See our gallery.
Our professional team has the experience and resources to provide the best possible advice. The framing possibilities are limitless. Restoration and cleaning of paintings is also an option. Temporary mount boards for art student and photographic exhibitions are popular.
The huge variety of triple-primed handmade canvases is available; readily made, or custom made to specific required dimensions. The canvasses are of the best quality available in South Africa. The selection includes pine box (4 cm, 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm), pine stretcher (2 cm, 3 cm) and the guaranteed obeche wood box canvas. The supreme obeche wood is warp free, now available in a stretcher frame.
The Framed Feather is no longer an Art Supply shop, we now only do Custom Framing, although we sell a variety of art and prints and paintings. We provide the service of custom canvas orders and SchubArt Acrylics on order. Ask for a price list!
