Studio Bizio

Lovely friendly shop with top quality advice from the enthusiastic owner

Blown away by the beautiful crafted artwork. The frames in themselves are a piece of art. The gentleman and lady in the shop could not be nicer and their knowledge of everything they sell is a testament to their love of art and creativity.The Edinburgh map framed prints are on my bucket list.If you want an art and framing shop that is a true artistic experience then you will be hard pushed to find anything better.

I had the good fortune to commission Joanna of Studio Bizio to frame two large oil paintings on canvas - copies of still life works originally painted by artists in the Low Countries in the 17th century. Joanna is more of a framing consultant than a common or garden framer: she thinks hard about the most appropriate frame both for the painting and its location. She researched Dutch frames of the relevant period and worked out how to create a frame to fit on a curved wall, and she did it with enormous enthusiasm. It helps that she's an artist's eye for what will work.
