About

Our talented team of frame-makers, finishers, and craftspeople are committed to creating beautiful, bespoke frames and mirrors that meet every brief. We have the pleasure of working with notable names within the hospitality and hotel industries, including The Maybourne Hotel Group, The Twenty Two, Heckfield Place and Dorchester Collection. We also work closely with private clients, artists, galleries, curators, and many of the UK’s top interior designers, making bespoke frames, mirrors, and finishes for projects all around the world.

Since 1979 we have specialised in the production of bespoke and hand-finished picture frames and mirrors, with Patrick learning the art of hand-finishing frames in Italy at the start of his career. In the 45 years since, we’ve expanded our offering to include not just picture frames but bespoke mirror design, hand finishing, and object framing, too. Patrick handed the reins of the business to his daughter, Abbie Ireland, in 2019 and we’re just as committed as ever to his legacy of design innovation, quality, and reliability.

In addition to creating fully bespoke work for our clients, we also have a robust frame catalogue, including a number of Patrick Ireland original designs, and a collection of PI-designed mirrors, all of which can be fully customised to suit a particular design scheme or project.

Our workshop is based in East Sussex and you can often see our Patrick Ireland delivery van zipping around London, but for clients further afield we use specialist couriers who take the utmost care with our fragile products. We love opening our workshop doors to visitors and would be delighted to welcome you to our new workshop in Buxted, East Sussex from September 2024.
