DOUBLE MATTS is the use of 2 mattboards joined together,often
a colourd matt is used as the inner matt directly against the art work---below is a example of a tripple matt ,with 3 matts jioned together with the coloured matt stepped away from the inside edge of the artwork,usually about anywhere between 7 to 15mm in. TRIPPLE MATTS are often a well suited option and look good adding depth and character to a framing job. (see example below)

hand coloured to achieve an accurate match of tone with the hanging wall - any imbalance can distract from the framed work -- in home consultations are available -- |
