Episode Details

Denis Kosnar, a seasoned framer with six decades of experience, is preserving a python skin from Sri Lanka in his Ascot Vale shop. His family business, started by his Czechoslovakian father in the Dandenong Ranges, has a rich history, supplying framers across Australia and New Zealand. Kosnars shop is a time capsule, filled with hand-gilded frames and thick paper records. Meanwhile, Chapman and Baileys Jarman, established in 1879, specializes in museum-quality frames, showcasing old-school ornamental techniques. Both shops prove that framing is about preserving stories and memories, not just the money.
