Identifying A Moulding

Hi everyone,

I've had a client request to match an existing moulding . I've searched all my books to find it and have a guess what no joy, so I'm sure someone on this great forum can help. The moulding is a smooth matt black and is 65mm wide, the customer has told me he purchased the frame which has a original Michael Godard piece in it on a cruise ship, the client has obtained a print in the same collection and obviously wants the mounts, moulding to match.

Help always appreciated.

Was it a UK based cruise ship? If so then it may originate from Whitewall Galleries who have a presence on a number of cruise ships. In which case the moulding probably originates from Enrique Lopez who do import into the UK through this company http://www.jdhmouldings.co.uk/ but you may have to buy a large quantity.

I have in the past dealt with customers who have made purchases on cruises in the caribbean and these ships have been US based.

Good luck.

Which ones? If we know that, we'll know which catalogues aren't worth searching because you already have.

Hi,

Sorry the catalogues I've searched are Lion, Simons and Mainline, If it can't be matched can anyone suggest a close match, even if I suggest re-framing the original to match the new or will that de-value the original because I now its worth around £300.

Thanks
Adrian
