Photo frames

At Archivista we display a remarkable range of over 500 photo frames, and you will be sure to find the ideal frame to suit your special photograph. We source our selection of contemporary and classical styles from both local craftsmen and overseas suppliers. From delicate filigree, stylish pewter, exquisite hand-made copper, beautiful New Zealand kauri and rimu frames, to gold and silver leaf designs, sterling silver, paua and many more. Frames are a wonderful present to give or receive and a framed photo adds a very personal quality to your gift. Visit our store in Mount Eden (bring your photos with you if appropriate) and our staff will guide and advise you on your selection.

Custom framing

Custom framing is a specialized option when standard frames are not suitable. Photos, artwork, needlework, christening gowns, postcards, children's art, T-shirts, daggers, medals and memorabilia, - they all come in different shapes and sizes, and custom framing is the ideal solution. The choice of moulding (the frame edge itself), specialized matt or mounting options, the choice of glass - are some of the components that comprise a custom-made frame. Archivista can advise and guide you through the choices to achieve a unique and perfect solution.
