Picture Frames: Types, Styles, and Matching to the Artwork

For over two decades, I have been creating picture frames with attention to detail, combining traditional craftsmanship with a modern approach to art. For me, a frame is not just a border — it is a boundary that protects the artwork while at the same time opening it to the world. A properly chosen frame can highlight the beauty of the artwork, bring out its colors and character. In my workshop, custom-sized picture frames are created by hand, with care given to every detail.

This is the choice of the perfect frame, which allows you to match the style, color, and construction to a specific piece. Professional framing often requires an individual approach — every artistic style needs a different treatment of form and light. That is why a unique frame is so important, tailored not only to the color palette but also to the character of the painting. In my workshop, I create frames with decorative carvings that emphasize the classical style of portraits and landscapes, as well as gilded frames that add elegance and depth to the artwork. These are frames made from solid wood, carefully hand-finished and refined in every detail.

If you want to give your artwork a new dimension — frame your painting in a frame created with its style, proportions, and history in mind. For works with a strong character, a solid frame works best, providing not only stability but also aesthetic balance. I often suggest to clients a wide decorative frame, ideal for larger canvases and classical portraits. Each frame size is chosen individually to maintain the proper proportions between the artwork and its frame.

The style and quality of the framing are crucial — they determine whether the artwork will be properly showcased. I also create frames for paintings with different uses, which work both in galleries and home interiors, combining functionality with timeless aesthetics. I follow the principle that every frame should highlight the character of the artwork, not overpower it. That is why, in my workshop, frames are created in different styles — from classical, richly decorated, to minimalist and geometric forms, ideal for modern artworks. Each is designed to maintain a balance between form and content.

I focus on frames with attention to detail because it is in the details that craftsmanship and elegance are revealed. Delicate carvings, subtle distressing, or hand-applied finishing layers give each frame an individual character. That is why I continue to emphasize that the finish of the frame has a huge impact on the final effect — it can give the artwork lightness, depth, or warmth. My offer also includes wooden picture frames, which have enjoyed lasting recognition for years.

Wood has a natural structure and nobility that no other material can replace. That is why many clients choose wooden frames, appreciating their durability, aesthetics, and timeless character. I also create frames for classical paintings, where every nuance matters — the shape of the profile, the color of the patina, or the proportions between the moulding and the artwork. Such projects require experience and sensitivity, because only the choice of the right frame allows you to achieve perfect harmony between the artwork and the interior in which it will be placed. I encourage you to experience for yourself how much a well-chosen frame can change the perception — simply frame your painting in a frame created with passion and attention to detail. It is in this combination of craftsmanship, aesthetics, and respect for art that the effect arises, giving the artwork its full expression.
