“I received my mirrors safe and sound.  Wow…they are awesome!  I am so glad that I got both, I am very happy with them.  While the pictures you sent were accurate in every way, it doesn’t compare to seeing them in person.  The guy who made these does incredible work. 

I appreciate all your help and thanks for the great service.”

"I just wanted to express how happy we are to have found you.  The frames are perfect and exactly what we envisioned.  I will certainly recommend you and your team at every opportunity.  You have exceeded our expectations, and we are most grateful for the attention to detail and the customer service you provided at all times."

I went to Michael's for framing because someone gave me a coupon for 40% off.  When I got there, there was a 55%-off special on custom framing, so I chose a frame expecting a reasonable price.  The discounted price was $189.  I was shocked that the regular price for a frame like that would have been around $400!

At BlackBird, I found an incredible selection and the non-discounted prices for several great options were between $100-$150 with premium glass and a better quality mat.

"I could tell you took a lot of time and paid attention to every little detail...the way the fan is attached, the fabric it's mounted on, the frame we chose.  I just didn't know what to expect when I came in here, I didn't know what I wanted, but you took this and really made it into something.  It's even better than I could have imagined."

“When I first moved to Asheville I began the search for a gallery that had skilled and creative framers - whose selection of molding and matting materials was far ranging and excellent.  As a former gallery owner myself I knew my standards were very high, but, in time, I found the excellence I sought in BlackBird.  The owners, Pat and John Horrocks, and their staff are superior, as are the selections!  I wouldn’t trust my art work with anyone else now.  As the years have passed I continue to be surprised and pleased to find that, once again, they come up with a great design and we have fun working on it.  Additionally, it seems I usually run into a friend when I’m there.  Others who seek quality are finding BlackBird.”

“Thanks to Black Bird Frame and Art, I have created an artistic medical office environment that embraces both patients and staff alike with uniquely framed  art photography of western North Carolina.  The framing  themes range from playful to exquisite with custom museum framing for original pieces in my home.  Their final design renderings always surpass my expectations.  This is the finest framing studio I have experienced, including  past dealings  with reputable framers in Washington, DC and New York City.   ‘Always a joy to work with their staff.  “

“I couldn’t believe how incredible my framing looked…I won’t work with anyone else.  Living nearby, I’m glad I can support a local business.”
