Moulding ID

Post by Framing Frenzie »

Hi. I wonder if anyone can help me find a moulding please. A photographer customer has seen some framing at a show at the NEC and would like me to make one for him. I have seen the moulding in Arqadia and ordered a length, along with the fillet. The photo the photographer sent me looks like the slip is wider than Arqadia's widest version and I can't see it anywhere else. I'll post some pics to explain what I mean but if anyone can help me that would great.I did make some from scratch a couple of years ago but the joins eventually cracked and it looked awful. It wasn't ideal to wait for a dry day and take it outside to spray it either so that option is out. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Another one he has seen is this. It's a high gloss pewter. Using my sharp detective skills :lol: I contacted the people who were on the labels and they said they weren't framers or even at the NEC. I didn't have the energy to say I wasn't asking about that and thought perhaps they wanted to get rid of me and took the hint. They were based miles away from me and were no competition as photographers however it appeared they didn't want to help in this otherwise friendly industry. :Slap: So does anyone have a clue where I might find this moulding too please?

Lion's have a St. Ives prefinished moulding, like the Arqadia one, if that's any help...

The pewter frame might be a salvadori moulding
