Marathon Medal & Bib Frame
Your Marathon Medal & Bib Frame medal, framed in our Sandymount workshop with your name and finish time on the mount.
- Your name and finish time written onto the mount by our Valiani mount cutter
- Mount openings cut to fit your medal, ribbon and bib
- Made by hand in our workshop in Sandymount, Dublin 4
- Medals from any year of Marathon Medal & Bib Frame, just choose 'Another year'
Your medal and your race bib, side by side in one frame. The bib is the number you wore for every one of those 42.2 km, and it belongs next to the medal you earned with it.
What's in the frame
- Your medal and ribbon, stitched in by hand in their own deep window so they never move
- Your race bib, held flat in its own window
- A cream mount with a coloured inner slip, cut on our Valiani to fit your bib and medal exactly
Any marathon
We make this frame for any race: Dublin, the Majors, or the one closer to home. Choose your race above, or pick 'Another marathon' and tell us which one.
We need your bib measurements
Bibs are different sizes for different races, so every frame is cut to measure. After you order, send us your bib's width and height in millimetres by email to framing@phoenixframers.ie with your order number. We won't cut anything until we have them.
How it works
Order online, then drop your medal and bib in to our studio at 3A Seafort Avenue, Sandymount, or post them to us and we'll email you how to send them safely. We let you know when your frame is ready.
Made in a black frame, by hand in our workshop in Sandymount, Dublin 4.
Delivery: collect free from our Sandymount studio, free hand delivery within 10 km, or €16.99 post and packing anywhere in Ireland.

Good to know
Marathon Medal & Bib Frame medal frames: your questions
Do I need to send you my Marathon Medal & Bib Frame medal?
Yes. We frame your own medal, ribbon and bib, so the finished piece is the real thing. Drop them into our studio at 3A Seafort Avenue, Sandymount, or choose 'Post it to us' and we'll email you how to send them safely.
Can you frame a Marathon Medal & Bib Frame medal from another year?
Yes. Choose 'Another year' in the Race year list and type the year, and we'll match the lettering on the mount. If you're not sure your medal will fit the layout, send us a photo and we'll advise.
Can I add my race bib and a photo?
Yes. Choose 'Medal + bib' or 'Medal, bib + photo'. Bring your bib in with the medal. For the photo, bring a print or email us the file and we'll check it before framing.
What is written on the mount?
Your name, finish time, the race and the year, written directly onto the mount by our Valiani mount cutter. Leave the name and time blank if you'd prefer just the race and year. We confirm the wording with you before cutting.
How long does it take?
We'll confirm a ready date when your medal arrives at the studio, and let you know as soon as it's ready to collect.
Do you frame medals from other races?
Yes, from any marathon, half marathon, triathlon or sporting event. See our marathon medal frames or request a quote for anything else.
A different race, or something more personal?
We frame medals, bibs, jerseys and race photos from any event. Tell us what you have and we'll suggest a layout.
