Why Poppy Frames are different from any other medal frames!
Unique Aperture Frames
I create a frame that holds each medal in its own shaped aperture requiring no glue or other adhering to display each medal flush with the velvet coated board. There are no other medal frames, to my knowledge, like Poppy Frames which enable medals to be so easily framed. All other medal frames use a ‘box’ and then adhere or hang medals.
Handmade wood mouldings in all our frames
Each frame uses solid wood mouldings which are hand cut and underpinned/glued. Glass and backboards are all hand cut.
Expertise
My knowledge regarding medal entitlement and research enables me to give the best advice to customers
Frame Testimonials/Examples
Due to the nature of medal entitlement there are ‘standard’ groups for WW1/2 and later wars and these designs I have pre-designed ready to cut and make your frame.
However over the years I have found that 90% of frames are of a more bespoke nature incorporating extra badge or other apertures and our metal photograph plates and metal nameplates.
Below are actual frames that I have made for customers and their feedback. Also I will add a selection of ‘standard’ frame layouts so you get an indication as to costs and you can email or phone with your requirements
Please contact me with any queries as to how to frame your or your forebear’s medals and I am always happy to chat-07534 228189 or use the contact form on the site.

Dear Peter, Everything went brilliant, I am so pleased with them as you can see from photographs attached. Cheque will be in the post tomorrow and worth every penny. Testimonial I am so pleased with the frames, work magnificent, prompt delivery, even though they were a challenge for you. I have had four done now and have been really pleased with them all. Highly recommended.
My wife and I are emigrating to Australia next month and was wondering if I should ever need more, will I be able to order from there, I except the postage will be a lot more! Many thanks Kind regards Denis Firmin
Dear Peter,
A very big thank you from all the family. I took the frame, with all the medals and photo, to a big family gathering and showed it to my dad, mum, uncles and aunts and they were very impressed by it. There were a few tears because some of them had no idea that i had the medals or were thinking of having them framed. I then gave it to my dad as a present. So if anybody is thinking of having some medals framed, then they should choose you, because i am going to again. Also, my uncle was impressed by it, he wanted to know if you could make an copy with replica medals. These would include the POW and British forces in germany medals. Peter, feel free to use any of this text for your website if its suitable. Thanks again Andrew A happy customer.

Hi Peter
The medal frames you did for me are going to be a centre piece at an exhibition about my ancestors in Nether Wasdale, Cumbria, where GVW was brought up, when not away fighting in the wars, all by a local historian, so the timing of you completing them couldn’t have been
better.
Everyone that has seen them has been impressed by your work and I am a very proud owner of them.
I do thank you again.
As promised I attach a photo of the frames please
feel free to use them on your website etc. or where ever you think fit.
Kind regards

My grandfather\’s framed medals looked so impressive that we had no hesitation in re-ordering in respect of my wife’s grandfather. Third frame now ordered for my father’s WW2 medals.
Hi Peter,
Just to say thank you for the medal frame, its now taken pride of place on our landing wall. It was nice to find Poppy Medal Framing as I had meant to do something with Grandad\’s medals for long time. Also being such a fussy so and so it is good to find a company happy to go along with my design and produce such a high quality product, satisfying even me! I don\’t hesitate to recommend your services to anyone looking to frame medals and produce a real conversation piece such as mine.
Best Regards,
Pete Bracegirdle

Poppy Medal Framing were able to quickly prepare a frame and presentation board to our exact specification. Great product and service – we’ll be using you again for next year’s Awards!

Thank you so much for the framed replicas of my mother-in-law’s grandfather’s medals. I think the composition you suggested, together with the old frame and aged
medals, makes it look lovely. My mother-in-law was absolutely thrilled when I
surprised her with it yesterday. Thank you again for all your efforts – I am
delighted with the end result.
Delighted with Peter’s work and the framed up collection of my great uncle’s medals and photos is of a very professional standard. It looks great hung on the wall and we have had a number of compliments when people have seen it.
(We produced all of the photographs and original newspaper citation and nameplate on metal plate and the Memorial Plaque and MM, Pair are our age toned replica medals.
This being produced in one of our old ‘period’ frames to give the appearance of a group framed at the time)
Peter thank you for the 3 medal frames, they are stunning, I inherited a
number of medals and had I not contacted you I would have made numerous
errors – incorrect order of display, medals missing, incorrect ribbon
attachment so your help is really appreciated. The repro medal, replacement
ribbons and plaque are excellent. It was great to visit the shop too, and
thank you for the additional service of mounting all the medals too – that
saved me a job! Highly recommended – Thank You. Martin Garlick
Thank you so much for producing this fantastic Christmas gift for my husband he was
over the moon with it. The frame and work are great quality and it really is a lovely
addition to our home.
| Colonel J R MacRae | Dear Peter, I wish to thank you for the 3 Frames you produced for me. My Great Uncle\’s, my Father’s and my own Medals are now displayed in your frames of extremely high quality and first class workmanship. I am totally delighted with the end result and I wish you every success for the future Colonel J MacRae Ex Parachute & Special Air Service Regiment |
Having previously displayed WW1 medals and Dead Mans Penny I had no hesitation in
returning for this special display case. The Auschwitz medal and document and the
memorial medal wanted something respectful and this has been more than achieved.
Many thanks. I will be back when I need something which is made to order.
