There is no shortage of praise that I have for Ana. She is a true expert of her craft - shes also fair, patient and maybe most importantly, a kind person. When I moved to the area from NYC I was in need of a master framer and designer, and I was not at all disappointed. Ana has helped me with various projects, some small and some big, but they have all been objectively successful. Im quite the harsh critic with regards to my expectations and attention to details, but would not hesitate to recommend this shop!

I unexpectedly discovered Deco, tucked away on Spring Street, just around the corner from Bedford St. in downtown Stamford. Im so glad that I did. During the summer and early fall, I have given Ana, the Deco owner, four pieces and enjoyed both her creative and technical frame making expertise as well as four beautifully framed pieces. The quality of the work is exceptional and the service has been impeccable.I highly recommend that you seek out this little shop for a very personal and totally satisfying experience.

We moved to Stamford last fall and needed to find a good framing place for some expensive art. When we found Ana and U&I, it was very clear this was our shop. Not only is Ana amazing with her knowledge and experience, but shes also incredibly invested in your project, to make it great. She does a wonderful job at showing you options and how they fit with your piece, as well as how something might not work. Its always from a place of true passion & mastery, which is very rare these days. Ana is a true artist and really spends time with the customer. Were very grateful to have found her and cant wait to get more pieces framed!(pictured is the latest Keith Haring piece to she framed, which looks fantastic!)

I love U&I DECO!!!Ana Maria is an absolute pleasure to work with. Over the years she has framed multiple pieces of art for me (paintings, collages, photographs). She always finds the perfect frame and/or accessory to the frame to enhance the art piece.Ana Maria puts great attention to detail in her work. She did an amazing job restoring a delicate painting that had been damaged.Ana Maria takes the time to discuss options and is sensitive to my budget.I have recommended Ana Maria to friends and she is my go to person when I have any art that needs to be treated with care. I know it is in safe and knowledgeable hands!!!

Go to U & I Deco in Stamford CT for ALL your framing requirements. Ana and her team can truly make the impossible possible. I recently had a 5 x 10 tapestry that weighed over 75 pounds framed in the most beautiful & expert way. I took this particular tapestry to 3 other framing businesses and none of them would accommodate me. Ana took one look at it and simply said, no problem. Her team expertly stretched and mounted the tapestry and arranged for delivery to my home because of its large size. In addition to unique framing capabilities, you only need to walk through the door at her Spring Street gallery to realize the depth and beauty of her framing work on paintings, prints, drawings and photos. Cannot wait to work with her again. She is a true artist & professional!!

Anna was extremely helpful. She gave me tips and suggestions on how my diplomas and artwork can be best portrayed (I feel it’s because she’s an artist in real life she has an AMAZING eye for this!). Will definitely be coming again!

Have had 3 crewel embroidery pictures framed at U&I Deco. Their attention to detail and an eye for enhancing the pieces with color and texture through mats and frames has made these pieces pop. Will definitely be using their services again

I have worked with Ana for years framing all sorts of art work. She is by far, the best framer I have ever met. Anas keen eye for design, style and color enhances and illuminates the work she is presented with framing. She is easy to work with and listens to your requests with an open mind. I am always more than pleased with the finished work. U&I deco is a rare find.

I love U & I Deco. I do a lot of framing and most framers today have only the basic, plain vanilla moulding samples. U & I has a large and varied selection to fit any piece from simple to museum-worthy. Even more important, the owner Ana has a great sense of how to frame to bring out the best in a piece. The skill of framing to enhance an artwork is an art that not all framers have. Ana is also an artist and her artistic sensibility and sense of aesthetics enable her to make great suggestions. Even though I have strong opinions about my frames, more often than not I adopt her suggestions because they are usually spot on. I highly recommend U & I.

Ana Maria is very talented! We had a lot of fun working with her to pick out framing options for a large canvas painting and another piece of art we got on a recent trip abroad. She has a great eye for little details that not only fit our style but truly bring out the beauty of the art.

U & I Deco is a wonderful shop. Ana has an amazing eye for framing— frame and mat selection, as well as presentation of artwork. We have had many pieces framed as well as restored by Ana ....and her eye and skill is always evident and appreciated. She understands the artwork as well as having an excellent intuitive sense of the client she is working with. In addition to her talent, Ana is fun to work with. I always walk away from her shop feeling good and excited to see the finished product.Ana is also skilled in art restoration. She has repaired valuable damaged art for us. Sculpture as well as antique paintings. She and Alain have visited out home to help hang artwork. Their opinions about arranging artwork and skill and care hanging pieces are terrific.U &I Deco also sells original artwork, beautiful handmade furniture, gift items and jewelry.Visit U & I Deco .....you will never be disappointed.

This framing and restoration shop is the best Ive used. The owner, being an artist and also having a great eye, offers very creative ideas for framing. The prices are very fair and ones budget is always respectfully kept in mind. There is no pressure and I received all the time needed to make the right choice. Aside from framing, Ive seen the before and after of restored pieces and their workmanship is outstanding. Its a not to miss shop that also has unusual artifacts and a very welcoming atmosphere.

Excellent work in art restoration and framing - very knowledgeable. Unique and lovely gifts - not what you see just anywhere. And yes, they have visited my home to help hang artwork as well. This is a business with heart as well as depth of knowledge and professionalism.

U & I Decorating is the ultimate experience in satisfaction. Your artwork will be lovingly inspected, professionally restored (if necessary) and tastefully framed. Ana will engage you in the process and walk you through the steps required to protect and present your treasure and make it come alive. Her eyes are as sharp as a hawks and her color sense, skill with proportions and framing selection are of the highest order.I am able to say this as I was an exhibition designer for the Metropolitan Museum of Art and am now in charge of the valuable marine collection of historic Larchmont Yacht Club, where U & I is our trusted resource.

Highly recommended for framing or painting restoration. The owner Ana is a highly skilled, easy to communicate, expert framer and painting restorer. Ive worked with many framers over the years and Ana has the best eye Ive ever seen. And shes a delight to collaborate with. Go, you wont regret it.

Go - I have had many pieces framed and restored by Ana - original art, tapestry, large scale photographs (up to 3 x 5). Her eye, creative input (I know just what I want and then find that she has much better ideas), unvarnished advice, attention to detail through the process are superb - and all given in a warm, comfortable, cooperative way to get to results which I love and continue to do so after years on my walls - and, UANDIDeco is easy to get to in downtown Stamford with next door free parking. So - Go, Go, Go

I have had a number of different prints and photos framed here. Ana is patient and insightful when helping design a frame, mat and border that work for each individual piece.
