It's your diploma, OWN it!
Just because there are literally millions of diplomas out there framed in black and gold, it doesn't mean yours has to be.
Alexis got playful with the school colors and chose an art paper from to zazz up the matting on her Associate in Arts Degree. She also went completely nontraditional with this Juhl frame from their foundry collection. We say bravo!

This is an image of salts deposited on the glass of a framed piece of art. We recently reframed for a customer. It is a reminder of the atmospheric life of a framed piece. With changes in temperature and humidity the framed work "breathes" and a good framer knows to take steps to mitigate those effects on the artwork itself. If you want to keep your artwork in its best condition, always bring it to a good frame shop so that you get the appropriate materials and structure to help preserve it.
Art you love deserves the attention of a custom framer-we're here for you.

A blissful cool image is set off perfectly by the soft shimmer of 's Palio line. It was framed this morning a I just loved how it seemed to evoke the same cool light coming in our windows today. I also appreciate how easy it is to photograph a piece framed with 's museum glass, all image and no shiny reflections.

Lucky noodle fan! Their Mom brought us this colorful anime poster to be framed and we were able to match it with 's Cerulean Blue from their Poems line. How cute is this?

Our Story

Located beneath Guild Art Supply in downtown Northampton, Pierce's Frameshop offers a wide selection of Custom Frames and Mats. While specializing in archival materials we can meet almost any framing need.

Established in 1898.

James Monroe Pierce was born February of 1853 in Peru, Ma. He was a brick mason and painter by trade and opened a paint and wall paper store with a partner under the firm name, Pierce and Rolfe, selling paints and wallpapers. In 1898 Mr. Pierce bought out his partner and carried on the business. James' son Hugh pierce worked in his father's business until he took over running the store when his father retired. It was said to be one of the finest stores for the handling of paints and wall paper in Western Mass. We don't know the full extent of all the changes that happened from there until now. What we do know is that at some point it left the family but kept the name becoming Pierce's Paint Store, then becoming Pierce's Art Store. Then in 1984 Pierce's Art Store was bought by William Muller who changed the name to Guild Art Supply after the graphic design firm he owned. But to keep the tradition alive the frame shop became it's own satellite business now known as Pierce's Frameshop.
