Custom Bases

Since 1987, Sheridan Oakes (Other Options Design Studio) has designed and manufactured museum quality display stands for art and collectibles.

He enjoys working with dealers, collectors, designers and individuals custom designing and manufacturing display solutions for three dimensional items. Sheridan has been involved with art since an early age and this business has provided an opportunity for him to use his artistic talents on a daily basis. He has found that it is satisfying to design an armature that elegantly and securely shows off a piece to its best advantage while keeping the mount as discreet as possible.
