About Preserving Legacies: Framing Memorabilia & Heirlooms
When you bring us an heirloom, we do not simply place it in a box. We use archival methods like acid-free cotton rag mounts and reversible hinging so your item is not permanently altered. For textiles or collections of objects, we build deep-rebate shadow boxes lined with raw silk, ensuring pieces are protected from humidity and dust while looking visually striking.
Your family story should not be hidden away. Whether it is a collection of vintage pipes, a cherished silk scarf, or a religious scroll, framing these items requires more than just glass and wood. It requires conservation science.
The Preservation Process
We approach each piece with precision. For delicate textiles like an inherited shawl, we use hand-sewn invisible tacking. No glue or staples ever touch your fabric. For hard objects, we fabricate custom acrylic or metal cleats to secure them within deep-rebate shadow boxes.
Materials That Protect
We utilize 99% UV-blocking museum glass to prevent fading and acid-free alpha-cellulose mounts to stop yellowing. We are not just putting items behind glass; we are creating a micro-environment that protects your legacy from Mumbai’s humidity.
Design Meets History
From antique gold frames for traditional art to sleek industrial metal for modern objects, we match the housing to the object's soul. We treat every piece that enters our Khar gallery as a member of our own collection, ensuring your treasures are protected with the same standards we give to museum exhibits. If you have an heirloom that needs care, bring it to us. We will discuss how to tell your story on your walls, safely and beautifully.
