Tavistock Picture Framing Galleries

Hiding behind Tesco in Tavistock is the largest art gallery in the South West. With a reputation for being not only one of the West Country’s finest art galleries but also one of Britain’s leading picture framers, Tavistock Picture Framing Gallery is often described by its customers as a hidden gem. The Tavistock Galleries are well known for being stockists of original paintings and limited edition prints, as well as cost effective wall fillers and kit frames at below internet prices. Their flagship gallery is conveniently located on an industrial estate, resulting in easy parking and lower overheads, the benefits of which are passed on to the customer.

Rik and Sarah and their friendly, experienced team have spent decades sourcing a wide selection of moulding and framing materials from across the world, including hand-finished Italian and Spanish mouldings from Naples and Alicante made to their own design. Buying directly from small artisan manufacturers not only offers quality and exclusivity, but enables them to provide amazing framing at reasonable prices. The team are able to cater to any style and budget, and maintain the highest standard. A number of services are offered to help preserve and increase the longevity of precious pieces, including dry-mounting, UV-resistant and museum-quality glass and acid-free conservation mounts.

Steering-wheels, Venetian masks, shed snake-skins, handcuffs, dresses, medals and military memorabilia – these are just a few examples of the items they have framed. They will accept any challenge!

The gallery walls are hung floor to ceiling with paintings from top artists in the UK, ranging from the vibrant and eye-catching Rozanne Bell, to the atmospheric landscapes of Allan Morgan, to the kinetic cityscapes of Colin Brown. Many local artists have also become highly sought-after since being displayed on their walls, namely their exclusive best-seller Alli Cragg, who has gained an enthusiastic following. Another of their popular artists is the Victorian landscape painter FJ Widgery. The team has developed a speciality for restyling these classic Dartmoor scenes in contemporary framing to fit the modern home.

Tavistock Gallery's pricing is highly competitive, beating other galleries on both their artwork prices and framing.
