Linen Wrapped Mounts

Post by CharlesGloucester »

I'm a freelance framer in London and have been repeatedly asked to make handmade linen wrapped mounts.

The prelined linen mounts aren't comparable - they look so much more processed and less luxurious.

I've searched extensively for courses both UK and Nationally and can't find anything.

I just want extra tricks and techniques to make them prefect.

Does anyone know anywhere/anyone that offers training/courses?

Really appreciated.

It’s not really a thing in UK, but it certainly is in the USA and Baer Charlton was one of the best at it.

Here’s a video of his. Subscribe to or search for more from the YouTube channel “Franks fabrics” for more
