Stories, FramEd.
Framing is important for preserving and highlighting fine art photos. Our frames are handmade and durable. They are made from sustainable materials and have no carbon footprint. The glass we use is all museum-grade and resistant to UV rays, with the option to add an anti-glare layer. We collaborate with our framing partners to give our collectors exactly what they desire. Frames are available in black, white, and light oak.
