Belén Ferrier
Gilder framer
Genève

« I like gold, this noble material that the passage of time embellishes. »

After training with the Geneva antique dealer and framer André Buchs, Belén Ferrier opened her art framing and restoration workshop in 2003. Specializing in antique frames, she offers her customers authentic know-how, respecting craft traditions that date back to ancient Egypt. Involved in the preservation of artistic crafts, she collaborates in particular with the Michelangelo Foundation for Creativity and Craftsmanship.

« Gilding wood uses noble materials, in particular gold leaf, and requires around fifteen steps to complete. »

Bélen Ferrier and Mohamed Kahlia – his partner since 2020 – offer artisanal framing either by adapting old frames or by designing frames adapted to each work in a more contemporary spirit while respecting traditional techniques such as fine gold gilding. With 25 years of experience, Atelier B has worked for prestigious private collections and museums in Geneva and Europe.
