Properties of the Antique Wood Frame

This Antique Wood Frame is made of ayous and tulipwood perfectly combined together to obtain maximum strength. We use ayous for the molding because is softer and we use tulipwood for the back to strengthen its structure. This way the frame is going to be durable and very light at the same time.  It is completely customizable in order to meet any client’s desire. For instance, you can change color and shape.

antique wood frame decorations

The finishing of this rare type of French frame is in wood color combined with a fine gilded decoration on the inner side. We use several hands of dark shellack to obtain the wonderful result of aging the wood.

Dark color to age the surface

This reproduction of antique wood frame looks antique because we carefully put into practice a complex technique called “Patina”.  The process of patina, which is an Italian word, is done by the use of several stones to hit the frame surface and make it look old. As a result, any damaged little part of the finishing is just a part of a bigger plane. Check carefully the above photographs to be aware of the described process.
