I have a signed shirt I want to have framed to give as a gift.
Just wondered if anyone could recommend where to go preferably Richmond Twickenham Kingston South West London area?

Strange coincidence - I dropped an England shirt off at the post office only an hour ago, on its way to be framed. This is the company I've used

I used this firm to frame a signed Quins shirt. It wasn’t cheap, but they put a photo, a programme and a placard in too.
I sent the “ingredients” via RMSD and they dropped it back framed in one of their vans as they don’t trust couriers.
Sportsframe are the UK’s leading framers and suppliers of sporting memorabilia.
They did it nearly 9 years ago and it still looks good.
Can't comment about specific companies, as I'm not local, but you might want to look at any arts supplies shops/independent art shop/galleries to see if they offer the service. I did that when I got Dave Ward's BG9 shirt in the end of season auction a few years back. An independent shop will probably give you a lot of options on what you want to do, while larger companies will be more "off the peg". Have a think about what text you want on any labelling, maybe include a photo or two if you can find them on the internet. This is what I ended up with...

Thanks all for the helpful info - QOT - look forward to feedback when your order arrives
Frames in Twickenham are excellent. Heath Rd/Cross Deep
I needed a squad signed Quins shirt done in 2014 and spoke to the club who put me in touch with the following outfit who at that point had done all of the shirts in the bars etc at the Stoop. They mount the shirts over a bust inside the frame and although it was big, heavy and expensive I have honestly never seen it done better.
Its also worth noting that the club were great in getting me a Hi-Res squad photo to go in the frame at no charge. I would send a photo but its hanging on a wall in a different location. :-)
Good luck.
(Sorry I should have said this outfit are not local they are in the midlands but I completed the whole process by phone, email and courier, painlessly)
