Framed In The Village

Description of Work: I had an item framed that was unusual. They helped me pick out a frame that went well with the item.

Description of Work: Since finding Framed in the Village, we will never use the hobby stores again for our framing. They may cost a bit more but this is where the saying you get what you pay for is definitely true! You will not be disappointed in their work!

Description of Work: Beautiful job & it was ready the next day...a week before promised! Definitely recommend if you have something valuable/sentimental that you want preserved or displayed elegantly.

Description of Work: Framed two prints

Description of Work: They archivally framed a Civil War veteran's certificate (belonged to a great-grandfather) of service and his membership in the GAR. The certificate is quite large (about 3' X 2' framed) and was in tattered condition in several places. They mounted it on an acid-free board with mats and then used the archival glass and a lovely wooden period-looking frame. It is gorgeous and extremely well-done!

Description of Work: Framed In The Village is absolutely THE finest art-framing business in Oklahoma City, bar none. I have been using their services for many years, and they have always provided the highest excellence in service (as well as the enjoyment factor!) that could possibly be expected. They are the loveliest people, and they do the most beautiful work, always. Dennis Duarte, the owner, is the only active Master Certified Picture Framer in Oklahoma, certified by the International Picture Framers Association (PPFA) in 2010. They provide thorough, full-on assistance with each job, spending time with you and sharing their exquisite taste in artfulness and design, and making suggestions from their incredibly wide range of framing styles and materials. They can give you a frame that is simple and modern or very formal and incredibly crafted, intricate, and beautiful. They have always done a beautiful job in framing my Dad's artworks; and some of the pieces they've worked on were very old and not in good shape (from the '30s and '40s, and often in a very delicate state of age). They're extremely creative and subscribe to the highest standards of museum-quality framing. They've always respected the unique integrity of each piece I've brought to them for framing; and always done an exceptional job of setting off the piece to its best presentation (often more spectacularly than I'd envisioned). They're extremely professional, and yet very friendly and accessible -- I guarantee you will be delighted with each visit to them and each job you ask them to do for you! Plus, they also have a very large and varied stock of wonderful artwork to purchase, if you're looking for a perfect gift.
