Properties of the antique round picture frame

This reproduction of an antique round picture frame is made of ayous and tulipwood combined together. As a result, we obtain the maximum strength with the minimum weight. Customize the shape of the round sight as you prefer.

To realize the round shape of your painting, you must send us a drawing of its real size. First, put the painting on paper, and then draw the perimeter with a pen. This way, we will be able to realize the right rabbet of the frame. When you insert your artwork into the frame, it will match perfectly.

Patina (aging process)

“Patina” is an Italian word that refers to how dark and old look to be the frame. Apart from dark gold, the age of a frame is determined by a few cracks and tiny broken parts all around the sides. For this purpose, our gilder hits its surfaces with some kinds of stones.

Also, the wormholes are simulated as well, and you will be able to notice them by analyzing deeply the pictures above. The presence of wormholes does not indicate activity within or a recent flight of beetles. Remember that they were faked by us to specifically age this antique round frame reproduction.

See below a video showing all the steps of the Patina.
