FA Pollak Ltd, established in Rosebery Avenue for almost 20 years, have framed the Queen, Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
The intricate wooden frames of many great works of art that appear in galleries or in private collections throughout Britain and the world have also been made at the studio opposite Sadler’s Wells.
Partner in the firm Alexander Roeder, whose frames range in price from £100 to £15,000, says: “The art market is a bit stagnant at the moment but will always pick up. A huge amount of intricate work goes into our frame-making and we are regarded as among the best. Clerkenwell is a great vibrant area but I do look back longingly to the good old days when you could park outside the showroom.”
