How we frame?
We offer our batiks with partial frame or unframed, both options are ideal for transport, even international.
Partial open frame is done with wooden horizontal rails. We’re leaving the sides open for a design effect and to complement the artwork. However, it is easy to unmount the frame in case you prefer to have a fully framed picture.
To prepare each frame, we use a Japanese Yakisugi wood burning and preservation technique. Each frame is lightly charred to bring out texture and depth, then sealed with a water‑based finish that protects without hiding the wood’s character. The result is a rich, tactile edge that complements the artwork but doesn’t compete with it.
For every art piece we mix a suitable water‑based hue chosen to match and enhance the image. The colour is subtle to lift tones, add warmth or coolness where needed, and create a gentle visual bridge between artwork and frame.
Yakisugi‑inspired frames
Materials and sustainability
We make frames that feel warm, tactile and a little smoky — inspired by the traditional yakisugi technique but adapted for our art. The wood we usually use is PEFC certified fir, our go‑to, because it`s stable, fine‑grained and responsibly sourced. We also use treated recycled wood for extra character and a lower footprint.
Sustainable choices are built into every frame, from timber selection to finishes.
