THE FOUNDATION FOR YOUR WORK

A good canvas starts with the wood.

Our main business is making ready-stretched canvases. If you prefer to stretch your own, you can also buy the foundation separately: profiles from our stretcher frame range.

The Galerie profile is 4 cm deep and 5 cm wide. The frame is made from laminated pine wood. A matching crossbar supports this elongated format.
