Frames for Flies

All the flies I offer on this website are framed with a multiple mat and a recessed "well" for the flies. The flies themselves are mounted on posts with very fine thread. On the back of each finished mounting will be affixed a label stating the name of the fly, when it was tied along with my signature.

Please note: The frame I will use for your fly may differ from the images below:

Special Framing

It is my goal to produce any special, custom framing needs that you might have. Below is an image of frames I produced for a customer who tied all the trout flies pictured. Pricing was based on the size of the frames, their complexity, and the number of flies that were included.

When I build a special frame like these below I first make a "template" for the customer to give him or her an idea of what the frame will look like when completed. If the customer wishes to have different colors on their mats, special designs, etc., that is part of the framing concept. The important aspect when making these frames is the customer's satisfaction of what the final frame will look like. I will submit a price proposal for the project before any work is begun. If you have any questions about this type of framing project please email me at:

radencich@northtwenty.com


General pricing for all types of frames can be found below.

Frame Pricing

The cost of framing the flies is based on the size of the frames and how many flies are inserted in the frame. Plus, more of an elaborate matting will increase the price. Generally, a 9" x 7" frame with a double matting costs $199.95 plus the cost of the frame with glass (about $39.00), and shipping to the buyer. A frame that is 11" x 14" with a triple matting will cost $399.95 plus the cost of the frame with glass (about $54.00), and shipping to the buyer.

Larger "custom" frames will have a cost based on the size of the frame and how many flies are included in the display.

If a client sends to me a fly or flies to be included in the frame there will, of course, have no charge. If a frame that includes a fly that I have made for the customer, will add to the cost of the frame. So, for example, a 9" x 7" frame including one fly I've tied for the customer will cost $299.95 plus the frame and shipping - and an 11" x 14" frame with one fly I've tied for the customer will cost $599.95 plus the frame and shipping. If more than one fly in a frame is asked for by a customer I will come up with a pricing proposal. These are the same pricing of framed flies in the Classic Salmon Patterns page and the Blacker Fifteen page, .

If you have any questions about framing and the prices just send me an email at radencich@northtwenty.com and I'll get right back to you. Here is again the frame pricing schedule:

 

9" x 7" Framing project with one fly from the customer (frame with glass and shipping costs will be added) $199.95
11" x 14" Framing project with one fly from the customer (frame with glass and shipping costs will be added) $399.95
   
9" x 7" Framing project with one 5/0 fly made by me (frame with glass and shipping costs will be added) $299.95
11" x 14" Framing project with one 7/0 fly made by me (frame with glass and shipping costs will be added) $599.95
   
Pricing for special frame projects for customers will be determined based on the complex of each special project and I will work with each customer to come to an agreement about what they have in mind. This means more than one fly in the frame, special colors or matting, etc. The price for a special frame will be determined after the customer and myself agree on what the frame will look like when finished.
