The staff at Buchanan and Kiguel treat everybody as a welcome guest. We have been bringing all sorts of artwork for matting and framing to Buchanan and Kiguel for over 20 years. We started because they had the reputation as the Premier studio for this type of work. Their work has done nothing but get better. Paul is the best, not only because he has a fine eye for bringing out the essence of your item, watercolor, print, pencil, or tapestry, but also he listens to your story. He asks the right questions regarding the spot where you intend to place the work, lighting, colors, and shape of the setting all play a role in his consultation regarding mats and frames. He has the touch you are seeking in maximizing your treasure’s place in your home or office. Their expertise includes repairs, cleaning and restoration. You can trust them with the finest art in your collection.

B&K has restored and framed several antique maps and prints, enhancing each piece with a thoughtful approach, often through French matting. The customized approach and craftsmanship adds distinction without distracting from the underlying artwork. They have also framed modern pieces, including family photographic portraits, with equally good results.

They just restored a 17th century piece of art that had been damaged by mold and it looks great! The new framing is perfect, and we are very happy with their service and professionalism.

This is the place to go for high-end framing. These folks know what they are doing, and they take the time to do it right. I recently had them do two jobs for me: (1) removing a nearly-unique Stephen Colbert poster from the foam board to which it was attached, conserving it, and framing it as a gift for my son, and (2) varnishing and framing a vintage (1892) oil painting that had been cleaned by another restorer. The frame that Paul and Cindy and I picked out at the Fairfax Street (Old Town Alexandria) location is amazing. It is real gold leaf, and with the custom label that was created and attached, it now occupies a place of honor in our home. The frame is so nicely done that you do not see any joints at the corners, as they have been covered by gold leaf. All of this was expensive, so do not go here if all you want is a standard framing job. These folks do museum-quality work. Sometimes you pay a premium price and do not get premium results. Buchanan & Kiguel gives you what you pay for.

My first custom framing experience was in 1976, and over the intervening years, I have had excellent experiences with several framers -- truly excellent. Over the last year I have come to know Buchanan & Kiguel, and have had some 15 pieces framed to date -- including a wedding invitation, hand-colored Victorian prints, and most recently, a 175 year old piece of English needlework. These folks know what they are doing! I have been beyond pleased with all aspects of the experience -- selection, customer service, level of taste, timeliness of delivery and -- quite frankly -- cost. (It is no small task to find someone today who is able -- let alone willing -- to execute French matting. They do them beautifully here!) B&K is an exceptional custom framing gallery and I have no doubt is equipped to meet the expectations of the most discerning client.
