Fantastic service and great quality frame. My print looks amazing in its new frame. I had to post my print, due to Covid, it seemed to take ages to arrive, via Royal Mail but the communication was amazing (I sent a lot of emails! Panicking thinking Royal Mail had lost the print)
Kevin emailed me to confirm it had arrived which really put my mind at rest. Easy to collect when the gallery reopened. Very impressed indeed and would definitely use again and highly recommend.

Kevin and Zoe took time to advise me on the options for framing my watercolour painting. They have a huge selection of frames and mounts and the ones chosen set the art off to best advantage. The picture looks really wonderful and it's back in its place on the wall with 2 others. We are considering having its companions reframed as the professional framing job has made such a difference.

Thoroughly recommend these picture framers not only is the work they do of the very highest quality but also they are very friendly, knowledgeable and always complete the work on time. Very lucky to have them so near by!

I have used Eagle Gallery for all my framing and mounting for sometime now. They supply professional quality mounts and cellophane wrapped for my fine-art limited edition prints displayed at CAOS exhibitions and shows. A very helpful and friendly couple, Kevin & Zoe, both award winning framers so; you know you will receive top quality products and you'll return time and time again!
