Framers…more than


just frames In the frame: vintage Isle of Wight maps, photographs and postcards


With over 25 years’ experience of making bespoke frames to order, Wayne and Caroline Jones can frame just about anything. ‘We’ve framed pictures, posters, maps, t-shirts, music memorabilia, medals and embroidery’, advises owner Wayne. With over 200 different frames in stock and hundreds more available, they’ve found the current trend is for reclaimed wooden frames.


In addition, they also offer a superb range of contemporary Isle of Wight landscape and event photography, vintage maps, postcards and local art. ‘“History is my passion and I’ve been collecting old postcards, photos and maps for years. Suddenly my vintage maps have come into fashion; customers buy them to decorate walls, lampshades, all sorts. People also like buying old pictures of their houses, and 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s photos are trending now.”
