Located in Easthampton's Historic Town Hall at 43 Main St., Eastmont Custom Framing and The Elusie Fine Art Gallery combine a bright and elegant art gallery and a full service creative custom framing operation under one roof.
Owner Jean-Pierre Pasche has been a custom framer since 1986, operating his first shop "Cadre & Livre" in Montreux, Switzerland in before moving to the Pioneer Valley and opening Eastmont Custom Framing in 2001.
Welcome.
This website is the cyber home of Eastmont Custom Framing, The Elusie Fine Art Gallery and the Eastmont Art Fund.
At Eastmont, our basic philosophy is that custom framing should be for everyone: the accomplished artist as well as the casual one; the arts collector or the sports fan; anyone who has something special he or she wants to display on the walls of her office or his home and cares about how it will look and how well it will be preserved.
Using the services of an experienced and dedicated framer gives you the assurance that your framed piece will not only look good but will also be handled in a safe and durable manner. We use almost exclusively acid free materials and conservation quality glazing, and we guarantee our work for 5 years against any defects in materials or craftsmanship.
We also understand that using the services of a custom framer during these economically challenging times may seem like a luxury that you can't afford. We always work with our customers to find a solution that will fit their budget without compromising our standards of quality and "great looks".
A special note to the artists who are planning to have an exhibition: people are buying art!
Remember also to have your art presented in a way that will be inviting the potential buyer to look at your work and be positively influenced by the way it is displayed.
We understand that budget is often an issue when it comes to framing artwork for an exhibition but, despite the popular belief: people DO judge a book by its cover!
Not convinced: take the Eastmont Challenge: if you have always done your framing yourself, come and see us and tell us how much you spend on framing supplies. We will frame one of your artwork for the same price and you'll let us know how it fared during your exhibition!
At Eastmont, we also offer several budget conscious solutions for artists, come talk to us, I'm sure we'll find one for you. After all our prices are just as good as the chain stores! Check out our June 08 Newsletter.
