What You'll Get
Frames are the only thing stopping art thieves from sneaking into paintings, stealing all the Renaissance hats, and leaving behind with a gallery full of bald, confused-looking peasants. Prioritize art preservation with today's Groupon: for $45, you get $100 worth of framing services at Art Frame Studio on Castro Street in Mountain View.
Art Frame Studio, a coalition of framers both inhumanly precise and humanely noncommittal about your taste in art, are eager to fit elegant custom borders around your favorite painting, scroll, or certificate. You'll find a frame that suits any study or tower laboratory among the shop's hundreds of mouldings. From there, choose the finest UV-resistant glass to protect your vampire paintings from the ravages of sunlight, and select museum board to preserve valuable works of art with museum-grade matting. Art Frame Studio's specialists also frame Asian art and scrolls painted on rice paper through wet-paste mounting, a rare and difficult process that most framing shops will not attempt.
