The business, born in 1955 as an art studio, inserts itself in the old Florentine tradition of artistic handicraft and boasts a private national and international customer base. Tris artisan boutique, preserved over the years, and even today thanks to the passion for detail and antique craftsmanship, is still able to offer services of impeccable quality in the creation of frames. The workshop is specialized in making artistic hand made frames and realizes every kind of custom designed or reproduced patterns upon request; gilt frames with gold leaf finish, as well as silver frames and finished frames with the Italian “meccatura” are realized in our atelier; in addition restoration of wood frames, as well as frames made of “pastiglia” (plaster) are offered to our clients.
