Our Unique Framing Selection

Hand Carved Arts + Crafts Frames

Our Hand Carved Arts and Crafts frames evoke the traditional craftsmanship inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement of the 19th and early 20th century and utilized in the construction of Mission style furniture. We employ various joinery techniques, such as mortise and tenon, through-tenon, bridle-joints, and lap joints.

In addition to Quartersawn White Oak, we often use other hardwood species, such as Fishtail Oak, Tiger Maple, and Walnut. As with all of the frames that we manufacture, our molding styles, wood species, and wood finishes are interchangeable, resulting in nearly unlimited options.

Rattan Picture Frames

Built custom to your art or mirror, adding a hand finish frame to match your decor!b Our rounded Rattan liana is wrapped with flat oval reed and accented with double pulote rabbit. 

Stain options include: Dark Walnut, Walnut, White Wash, Natural, and Custom Finishes are also available!

Gold Leaf Frames

Working with 23 karat yellow gold, 12 karat white gold, and delicate, champagne-colored 22 karat moon gold, we add stunning accents to our hardwood frames. Our artisans employ the esteemed technique of water gilding, carefully applying leaves of gold by hand over red, black or blue clay, then burnishing them to a perfect finish. It is a painstaking process, preparing each frame with gesso and clay, but there can be no shortcuts. The result is a pairing of exquisite Gold Leaf accents and warm hardwood finishes, creating a singularly beautiful frame.

Welded Steel Frames

Our steel frames are each made from scratch, and have a range of custom finishes and sizes- design specific to the art or matching decor.

We start with raw angle or bar steel, which we then cut, weld, and grind, resulting in finishes that range from the sleek and contemporary to rough and industrial. Each shape can be left raw, showing off the original mill scale and character of the steel itself, or ground to a fine finish and then tinted in one of several beautiful finish colors that we spray in our finishing booth. The finishes we apply to our Welded Steel frames contain UV protective components and form a durable coating that will protect the metal from corrosion and oxidation.

We’ve created an unparalleled selection of steel frame shapes and styles, including traditional cap frame moldings in various widths and depths, as well as steel canvas floater frames and our unique Flat Iron profiles. Additionally, some of our steel profiles have the option of different screw and bolt treatments on the face of the frame.

Leather Picture Frames

Our leather frames are one of our renown selections. Each frame is made of the finest Peruvian material, each delicately hand-crafted. The elegance, beauty and durability of our hand-made leather collections are uncompromising and unmatched. The leather wrapped frames are made with master Peruvian craftsmanship, resulting in perfect addition to work of art or a room's decor.
