Stanhope was very professional and worked closely with me to best choose a frame and treatment for the piece. They delivered the piece on time and packed for travel. They are pricey but well worth it.
Description of Work: Stanhope mounted and framed a triptych of oversized photographs.

We expected February to be quiet, but they were VERY busy. The woman helping us seemed pressured by the line, so we felt a bit rushed. When she told us it would be ready in a MONTH, we were sorely disappointed. It was ready a day before promised. A few days after placing our order, I found a coupon for 20% off and called to see if they would honor it. The man who answered said the charge went through already, so they wouldn't do it. A credit CAN be done, but they weren't willing, even after I explained this was our first time there and the cost was significant to us. We were very disappointed. For good will and our repeat business and referrals, it would have been worth their while, we thought, to give us the credit. Although the job was done when they promised and we're ultimately satisfied, the length of time and unwillingness to honor our coupon will prevent us from recommending them. We were much happier with the service we got at Corners.
Description of Work: On an artist friend's recommendation, we went to Stanhope to mat & frame our wedding portrait. They did a silk mat, painted the beveled edge with gold, and framed the portrait. They pointed out the price & other differences in custom vs. traditional frames. We went with premade so it wouldn't be too far out of our budget. We explained that we had in mind a hexagon shape for the mat, and they drew out an example for us, which was attached to the order. We would have liked a double mat until they suggested they could paint the edge in gold to add contrast between the frame and mat. We loved that and wouldn't have known it could be done! For glass, we went with their suggestion of museum glass, which wasn't over expensive and protects & looks much better.

Response from STANHOPE FRAMERS
I AM SORRY FOR THE CUSTOMERS DISAPPOINTMENT IN STANHOPE FRAMERS. IT WAS THEIR EXPECTATION WE WOULD BE "QUIET" IN FEBRUARY BUT WE DID HAPPEN TO BE VERY BUSY. OUR RESPONSE IS THAT WE DID WHAT WE PROMISED. I UNDERSTAND THE CUSTOMERS WANTING THE PROJECT SOONER THAN THE GIVEN TIME FRAME BUT THE PIECE WAS COMPLETED WHEN PROMISED. THE DISCOUNT COUPON IS AN ATTEMPT TO DRAW NEW BUSINESS AND CLEARLY STATES THAT IT SHOULD BE PRESENTED AT THE TIME THE ORDER IS PLACED. WE WILL ATTEMPT TO BE MORE UNDERSTANDING IN THE FUTURE REGARDING THE LATE PRESENTATION OF ONE OF OUR COUPON OFFERS. WE HOPE THE CUSTOMERS REMAIN SATISFIED WITH THEIR FRAMED PORTRAIT.
