When I called I spoke to a young lady to ask if I can get my Japanese poem frame and I was told that I could come in and wait for it to be done. I already had the frame. When I arrived I was then told it would be ready in a week and its still not ready.

Bryan and his team were very knowledgeable and straight forward in their recommendations. Super happy with what they produced for my reframing request for an old painting. The care Bryan took to pack the delivery for me to carry back home is impressive. Highly recommended. Will use them again.

Can't say enough good things about all the staff and their impeccable service . I had a silk rug that I had bought from Istanbul . It was quite large and complex colors . Dana went out of her way to find me the right background and the right frame . It took longer than expected because she was so particular about getting it exactly right . I think she was more excited about the project than I was . Such a pleasure work with a perfectionist. Dana and Kelly came to my condo to hang up the end product . Once again , they worked patiently and precisely until they got it just right . Would highly recommend Flax Art to everyone.

Floating the drawing on a white board and pulling the frame away from the drawing a bit, coupled with the strong “ Big Cube” frame, and the amazing Optium Museum Acrylic, was exactly what the drawing needed to showcase it properly in a museum. Not only do they do amazing work, they are a pleasure to work with. Flax is the only framer I trust.

My experience at Flax was absolutely AMAZING!! I not only found the perfect frame, I received exemplary customer service from everyone I interacted with. The staff is very friendly, helpful & thoughtful. When my mom fell Ill suddenly, sales reps remembered and would ask how she was doing. It’s the little kind acts & gestures coupled with framing expertise that made my experience pleasant.I purchased a gorgeous piece of art during my travels to Cape Town South Africa and Flax made sure she was beautifully framed.I am a customer for life!

We are long-time customers of Flax Art and Frame, for about twenty years. Our most important family projects are framed here, since we know the work will be done with artistry and care and with the highest quality materials. We have enjoyed working with Dana and Brian over the years. The current project, undertaken with Dana's advice on method and style of framing is to create a custom arrangement in tryptich style to surround a large central Chagall print with two side panels to showcase my own smaller art pieces, for our living room mantel. Dana was able to intuit the best spatial arrangement for the panels given the space constraints, calculate the enclosure sizes, and fashion enclosures that would allow me to swap out the small art work selections. Matting exactly matches colors derived from the print, so the whole look is cohesive. The work is so carefully conceived and the final pieces are beautifully crafted. Outstanding work!

They are clearly masters in their craft here. The quality of work is fantastic, and the service is above excellent. It's not cheap, but if you have anything worthwhile to frame this is the place to do it.10/10 experience.

I have framed twice with Flax and am very satisfied with both outcomes. Brian and his team went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our frames.I am grateful for their time and flexibility in framing a vintage tea cloth with asymmetrical edges. Flax created a few options for us to help center the cloth and really took the time to make it look great.Highly recommend!
