I would give Paolo more than 5 stars if I could! From the moment we walked in to his shop, we felt…read morelike we were in the hands of a true professional who takes pride in every single detail of his craft. We brought in a very wide, unusually short piece of art--something that could've easily turned into a framing nightmare. But Paolo offered thoughtful, professional advice that elevated the entire piece. Our custom frame looks like it belongs in a museum! The quality is impeccable, the materials are top-notch, and the level of care Paolo puts into his work is crystal clear. On top of that, his customer service is warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful. He reframed an old beloved piece of art print from 20+ years ago and it looks spanking new! He listens, offers ideas without pressure, and truly wants you to walk away thrilled. We highly recommend Art Frame Studio!

We have used Richard Sumner Frames twice. The first time was great, although eye-wateringly…read moreexpensive. The second time was a horrendous experience. They can frame things beautifully and really elevate prints, paintings, and other artwork. We were really impressed with the matting, the backdrops, etc. for the first batch of frames. This earns them two stars instead of one. The second batch was two frames, roughly 24" x 30", and totaled $2084.00 which is an absurd sum for frames, at least if you ask me. However, we were really excited about these specific pieces and sort of got "suckered" into paying a premium because that's apparently what good framing costs these days . . although we'll soon be finding other sources to see if that's true. Regardless, here is the timeline of events: Oct 4: Art is dropped off, deposit paid Oct 22: Frames are ready. One frame has a visible chip in the wood, with missing material. It's about 3/8" long and 1/8" deep, clearly visible on the front of the frame where the corners meet. I notify the owner that I'm not happy with it and he agrees to fix it. I bring the first piece home. Oct 28: The second frame is ready. I go to pick it up and see that there is wood filler in the chip. The frame is wooden, with wood grain, and the wood filler is a solid color and immediately visible from the front. The wood filler is also soft to the touch. I once again notify the owner that I'm not happy with it. Nov 23: The second frame is ready, again. The wood filler has dried, he assures me. It still looks terrible. I make it clear that for $1,000 apiece, these had better look perfect. Even better would be having a perfect frame the first time! Or the second time! Or even the third time! He agrees to remake this frame, which is what he should have done in the first place. Dec 12: The second frame is ready, completely remade this time. It looks great. He charges me full price and I bite my tongue so that I don't say something I regret. I pay and leave to close this chapter as quickly as possible. I get home and hang the second piece next to the first and (to add insult to injury) I find that the wires are not the same height/tension and the pieces don't sit at the same height. What a joke! Overall, very disappointing customer service and standards - combined with extraordinary prices - means this business is not for me.

We waited several minutes and then a man came out of a back room to see what we wanted. We were told we had to have an appointment and that we could return at 5PM. I'm 90 years old and had driven from Saratoga to Los Altos so I said I would not return. There was no indication anywhere that an appointment was needed and driving the freeway is difficult, especially at rush hour.

I had a painting which needed a good frame to match with the paint and all the other things I have at home. There were plenty of choices there but it wasn't easy to pick "the one" that would do it. Jeff, patiently showed me different things and gave me suggestions. He knew at once what will really work best for the picture. I did trust on his judgment and his impeccable work done carefully and right on the promised time. The result was even better than I expected. I am very happy with the result and the whole experience of it. I returned, and once again I was very pleased with his work. This time I had a simple poster that I wanted to mount without a frame. It needed to match other paintings nearby. Jeff suggested that we mount the poster on masonite. It worked great! One can tell that he not only knows very well what he is doing but also that he has a sense of quick understanding of the needs of the client. He is a very patient, friendly and has the passion and care of a real artist. Thank you Jeff for your good and professional work! Yes, I do recommend him again and again!
