Our signature frames come with a 5 cm wide bevelled mount so your picture will be positioned within a uniform mount, which is the gold standard for framing and perfect for displaying art and pictures. However, if you want to go one step further, you can opt for a bespoke mount which is much wider, making sure your premium artwork is the pinnacle focus in the frame.
At Abstract House, we cut all of our mounts in-house, so we have the benefit of offering bespoke sized mounts at a fraction of the price of high street framers.
