Framing Options
The right frame completes your portrait and helps it become a lasting part of your home and family story.
I work with trusted local framers and can help you choose the perfect frame.
Versailles Gold
A traditional antiqued gold frame with a warm, aged finish and subtle ornamental detail. The lightly distressed surface keeps it from feeling flashy, while the layered gold tones give a portrait a classic, old-world presence.
From $350
Traditional Italian Black
with Gold Leaf
A handsome dark frame with a broad black field and richly detailed gold inner border. The contrast between the dark outer moulding and warm gold ornament gives it a sophisticated, formal look without becoming overly ornate.
From $350
Warm Silver
A refined silver frame with a softly aged, slightly warm patina rather than a bright metallic shine. Its broad, stepped profile gives the artwork presence while remaining quieter than gold.
From $350
European Gold Ornate
The most decorative of the four, with a wider sculpted profile, antique gold finish, and traditional ornamental detailing. It gives a portrait the feel of a more important heirloom piece and works beautifully for formal family portraits.
From $350
