Italian Renaissance Frame Decorations
The decorative ornaments of this Italian Renaissance frame are made from wood pulp and carefully refined by hand using traditional carving tools.
Once the ornaments have been applied to the wooden frame, the master carver works on their details with chisels, creating balanced and harmonious decorative forms.
This technique reduces the number of working hours compared with carving every ornament directly from solid wood, making the frame more affordable while preserving its elaborate Renaissance design.
Follow the link below to see an example of our wood pulp carving technique. The video shows a different frame model, used to demonstrate how the decorations are carved and refined by hand.
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.
