I have a few canvas paintings that I've bought that I'd like to get them framed? Does anyone have a recommendation for a frame shop? My Polish is still minimal but I imagine I'll get by if English isn't an option. Is there much of a difference in quality/price from just going to say the frame shop at Galaria Mokotow?

Thank you!

There are many frame shops in Warsaw, the price obviously depends on the size and quality of frame. But why not buy the standard frames from ikea if you want cheap.

Canvas looks better if you string it and hang it as it is, but if you want to frame it then buy a mitre block and make your own frame, its really quite simple.

Great, do you have any recommendations for one of these shops?

I'm not sure what stringing is, can you elaborate? My paintings are flat, not stretched with a wooden frame. Just some paintings I purchased in Africa that I finally have a place to hang! Thanks!
