Where do I source this from?
Customer has bought a Bob Dylan print and wants it framing to match an existing one. Know what the outside frame and the mountboard are, but there's what looks like a paper wrapped moulding on the inside edge of the mount. Picture attached - can anyone please advise how I can match this?

Is that Hayseed mountboard? LJ sell a roll of Hayseed self adhesive backed face paper. That looks like this is a 5mm bevelled foam board wrapped in it. It doesn't stick to the foam board well so you can easily get this rounded finish

It's called a deep mount.
Pinwheel the foam board and reverse bevel where the pieces meet, so they sit snug together and it looks like that. Maybe someone has some pictures to illustrate it.
Remember to charge for it.

Re: Where do I source this from?
Nielsen used to do “bevelled accents”
1m x 100mm strips of foam board, bevelled and wrapped in mount board papers in about 20 colours.
The ends were also bevelled as Justin mentions but you’d have to bevel the ends of offcuts yourself.
They were very expensive but are very easy to make yourself and can also be made from skinny strips of foam board and mount board you’d normally toss out. You’d need mountboard where the surface paper peels off easily, some doesn’t.
Here’s a video
