Spotlight Saturday: Quadros Molduras Picture Framing

Written on Wednesday 9 November 2022

For this week’s Spotlight we got a look behind the scenes of Quadro Molduras Picture Framing Shop on Rua da Republica in Almancil. I also visited their factory in Loule Industrial Estate where they build frames to order; for art, photographs, and mirrors. 



As of this year, husband and wife Ines & Domingos have been in business for 30 years. They opened their Almancil shop in May of this year, where you can buy frames, artwork from local artists, and get high-quality prints made in up to A3 plus.

Clients are also welcome to visit their factory in Loule, Ines explains that people like to visit it as it gives customers confidence to see that everything is handmade and bespoke.



Quadro Molduras supply to homeowners, galleries, architects, and interior designers. Any time I’ve dropped into the Almancil shop, I’ve seen couples collecting and happily inspecting newly framed artwork for their home. Ines says the best part of the business is seeing people’s amazed reactions when they collect their framed item. She explained to me that most people don’t know what they want, so she gives them guidance and often it is a surprise for them. It is actually amazing how the right frame can showcase a piece of art or photography and take it to that next level.

In their Almancil shop, you can also choose from a selection of ready made frames and prints as well.

Everyone I met was helpful, friendly, and attentive - it is well worth a visit!
