Stretcher Bars and Canvases Exciting News

New developments are underway in the manufacture of our Stretcher Bars and Canvases.

We are currently investing in brand new custom machinery to improve the quality of our already outstanding stretcher bars. We are expecting the new more refined accuracy to allow for the re introduction of our Softwood Stretcher Bars this Autumn and also the addition of wedged 24mm Deep Stretcher bars. This also means that we will be able to offer our Studio Range canvases with wedges as opposed the the current fixed frames.

In addition, because of the helpful return of so many of our surveys we have lots of new exciting changes planned for this autum. More to follow soon............

New Wedges

 

Some of you may have noticed our new chunkier wedges. After listening to your comments we decided to improve on our current thin (and splintery) ply wedges, which did the job fine but after a few taps of a hammer ended up a bit tatty. We think our new 6mm all birch ply wedges look and perform a lot better
