Bronte Porcelain
I have put this on not because of the standard of design and framing but just to show the subject matter. This is an oil painting on a porcelain tile - apparently the oil paint, when initially applied, is a different than seen here and only obtains the desired colours after firing in a kiln. The standard of painting is fantastic; when I first saw it I thought it must be a photo.
The company, Bronte Porcelain, is in Malvern (about 10 miles from me) and produce some impressive art on porcelain - some of their painters are former employees of Worcester Porcelain.
For interest the frame is Arqadia 442700000 inner and Arqadia 684167348 outer, no glass.

Re: Bronte Porcelain
very effective never thought of a slip on that moulding. However I gave up on 442700000 a long time ago as it chips very badly post framing. I have had a lot brought back by galleries who found it didn't stand up to the rigours of exhibitions. The simons version was much better either.

Re: Bronte Porcelain
Maybe my typing let me down over the code for the inner moulding. Will check when back in shop tomorrow.

Re: Bronte Porcelain
That outer moulding is the only finished stuff I have bought lately. To replace ones that people bring in with chippy corners.
Very popular with undertakers.

Re: Bronte Porcelain
Robo is absolutely correct - the inner is 47434800. My weak excuse is I was looking at the wrong jobsheet when originally typing the post.
