The frame is in a stained Walnut tray frame with a low-sheen spray laquer to seal & protect. Unlike most tray frames - this is rebated & infilled with hand-painted custom coloured glass spacers, to allow for glazing later if required. This is something we often do for galleries as some clients prefer the pieces glazed for protection after purchase. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0014-2014-12-05-2.jpg DSC_0014-2014-12-05-2 https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0014-2015-02-24.jpg DSC_0014-2015-02-24 https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0014-2015-08-06.jpg Long view of the workshop Reception, workbays, CAD mountcutting, centre workbench, all set up to make oversize frames to present artwork beautifully. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0017-2014-12-05-2.jpg 4 ceramic masks with acrylic box These masks were supplied with a simple 3mm hole in the back of the head from which to secure them to the frame. This presented a challenge when devising a method to firmly hold them in place within the box. We achieved this by cutting apertures in the back of the pattress and inserting a bracket with a nylon screw to retain each head. This created a reversible and non-invasive method of displaying them. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0019-2015-08-06.jpg Workshop window Our beautiful workshop, with windows looking over treetop canopies, blasted brick walls, 200sq ft of nearly finished perfection. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0020-2014-12-05-2.jpg Acrylic box for four Grotesque ceramic masks casting shadows displayed in their acrylic box-home. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0021-2014-12-05-2.jpg DSC_0021-2014-12-05-2 https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0025-2015-02-24.jpg Strengthened corner This bracket adds hidden strength to a corner when it's gauged that the subject to be framed needs this addition. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0029-2015-08-12.jpg Spray booth in our workshop Black spray painting in process; undercoat first - then sanding and a couple of decent topcoats, with a final protection layer with a prescribed sheen level of 5% or 10%, or any level really. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0032-2015-08-12.jpg Spraying in process Simon in the spray-booth carrying out a grey base coat on a large tulipwood frame. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0036-2014-11-28.jpg Soft-sanded tulip wood Curve tulipwood profile set of frames ready for painting. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0037-2015-08-12.jpg The spray booth Complete with powerful extractors & spinning tabletop for ease of spray finishing. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0041-2015-08-13.jpg Box frame to bullet piece Strong oak box profile with stained finish, glass spacers & tray base. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0042-2015-03-02.jpg Deep grey glazed tray frame to 'Colour Fall' by Jo Deas Simple 'white in black' tray frame, like a licorice allsort!

This print has been mounted & framed in Oak-veneered aluminium deep profile. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0203-2015-10-15.jpg Lou Gardiner framed with oak, splines and water white glass. This is a Lou Gardner piece of embroidery that she has stretched to a piece of mount board, so there was very little support in the piece. She requested it to be mounted and to have glass spacers for the visual affect. We used an 8ply conservation board and made glass spacers from the same material. The oak profile was selected for as much character and grain as possible, which she likes for these pieces. Because she's a craft worker we always try and add an element of our own craft by using an embellishment such ask oak splines in the corners of the frame. When working with oak this is recommended as it can be a difficult wood to work with. The profile was finished with a Scandinavian oil to give natural look and glazed with low reflection water-white glass was used. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0204-2015-10-15.jpg DSC_0204-2015-10-15 https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/DSC_0209-2015-10-15.jpg Louise Gardiner deep oak frame Corner detail of a solid oak box frame, with contrasting white glass spacers on the internal.

Gesso is a traditional method of mixing chalk with rabbit skin glue & sprayed warm & wet onto the profiles before being painstakingly polished back to a porcelain smooth finish. This is traditionally the base for the latter stages of water-gilding, but here it forms a contemporary closed corner soft-sanded frame finish. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/gesso_iphoto_1397-Gesso.jpg Another beautiful tiny gesso tile painting by Helen Clapcott These delicate gesso tiles love being simply framed in gesso white on white glazed frames. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/gesso_iphoto_1398-Gesso.jpg Small painting by Anne Lever Framed with a gesso mount profile, and a tulipwood outer profile with a white pigment wash leaving the grain of the wood to show through. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr1/gesso_iphoto_1400-Gesso.jpg Close-up of a gesso mount The fine porcelain texture of the painted gesso is visible in this detail view.

The piece was phenomenally heavy & needed careful consideration regarding the weight. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr2/DSC_0057.jpg T-shaped box frame with museum acrylic Artist Tony Foster requested a T-shaped frame for this location art piece. It is an underwater painting with 'dive-log' & finished watercolour painting. It was decided on the T-shaped frame, partly because of the drama, but also because of the dead space in the bottom corners. The frame is a 30mm x 60mm solid beechwood, with a translucent ebony stain & spray finished to a soft 10% sheen. The back of this frame had a tulipwood support structure engineered to support the top-heavy nature. This frame is now on a travelling exhibition around the United States. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr2/DSC_0058.jpg T-Shaped frame construction Pocket screws to the subframe of this complex calculation large T-Shaped frame for Tony Foster in Cornwall. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr2/DSC_0060.jpg Back of a large canvas stretcher frame with crossbar support Cross-braces stapled & screwed in place to support this very large canvas. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr2/DSC_0062.jpg Back detail of T-shaped gallery frame Tulipwood support frame with pocket screws & conservation ocean board backing.

An acrylic box was the obvious choice for presenting them. The staging of the pieces was achieved with a construction made of MDF and tulip wood. This closed the 4 sided box off and offered support for the dolls. They were designed to be either placed on a mantle piece or hung on a wall by means of an integrated split batten on the reverse. Our interior design clients were particularly pleased with the solution of installing the dolls inside the boxes which turned out to be a bespoke trimmed bottle brush inserted into each doll. This allowed them to be removed in future, while holding them securely. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr2/DSC_0089.jpg Wood grain detail Wire-brushed & lime-waxed profile. https://www.harten.co.uk/assets/images/lr2/DSC_0090.jpg Series of acrylic boxes for delicate porcelain doll costumes These acrylic boxes or 4-sided cases were constructed as a commission for an interior designer.
