Art preservation is an essential aspect of maintaining the integrity and value of artwork over time. Proper framing is not just about aesthetics; it's a critical component in the preservation process, providing both protection and longevity to cherished pieces. At RAMINO ART OÜ, we understand that the right frame can make all the difference in safeguarding your investment and ensuring that it can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Artwork is vulnerable to a variety of damaging factors, including UV light, humidity, temperature fluctuations, and pollutants. These elements can cause fading, discoloration, and deterioration of both the art and its frame. Knowledge of these threats is the first step in combating them, and selecting the appropriate framing techniques is vital in this battle.

Materials Matter: Choosing the Right Frame

When it comes to selecting a frame, the material is of paramount importance. Wood frames offer a classic look and are available in a wide range of finishes and styles. However, they can be susceptible to warping and damage from insects. Metal frames, on the other hand, provide a modern aesthetic and are generally more resistant to environmental changes. RAMINO ART OÜ offers a variety of both wood and metal frames to suit any artwork and decor.

Acid-free matting and backing materials are essential in preventing chemical damage to your artwork. Additionally, UV-protective glass or acrylic can block harmful rays that cause fading. Our experts at RAMINO ART OÜ can guide you through the options to ensure your art is shielded from these risks.

Conservation Framing: A Deeper Dive

Matting serves a dual purpose: it enhances the visual appeal of the artwork and creates a space between the art and the glazing material, which is crucial for preventing condensation and potential water damage. We offer a range of matting options, from traditional to conservation-grade, to complement and protect your artwork.

Choosing the right glazing is a critical decision in the framing process. Options range from standard glass to high-quality museum glass that offers the highest level of UV protection and minimal glare. Our specialists at RAMINO ART OÜ can help you select the best glazing to preserve your art's vibrancy and clarity.

Advanced Framing Techniques

Proper sealing and backing are essential for creating a stable environment for your artwork. This includes using archival-quality materials and techniques that regulate humidity and temperature, preventing the artwork from expanding and contracting, which can lead to damage over time.

For high-value pieces, security mounting is a must. This technique ensures that the artwork is not only preserved but also protected from theft or accidental damage. RAMINO ART OÜ's custom solutions cater to the specific needs of your valuable art, providing peace of mind along with aesthetic enhancement.

Every piece of art is unique, and sometimes off-the-shelf frames simply won't do. Our bespoke framing services allow for the creation of custom frames that are tailored to the exact dimensions, style, and preservation needs of your artwork.
