Decorations

The ornamentation on the flat surface is also created by hand. Our gilder uses a specialized tool to produce the intricate punched pattern.
This technique creates a fine decorative pattern along all four sides of the frame. Its appearance changes depending on the light: in stronger light, the ornamentation becomes more clearly defined, while in softer light it appears much more subtle. You can watch a video showing this technique below.
Patina (aging process)
Each frame is individually aged by hand to recreate the patina and natural wear of an antique frame. Small cracks, distressed gilding, and simulated wormholes are intentionally created as part of the aging process.
Watch the video below to discover the different stages of our hand-aging process.
