For our museum clients we have custom milled vintage frames to use when exhibiting their collections of older photographs. Because we are a manufacturer they are are available in all of our woods and finishes. New profiles will require minimum orders and custom blades. Allow extra time if you are planning an exhibition.

André Kertész Hungary Frame - Profile 301D
This custom picture frame manufacturing was done for the National Gallery of Art's "Foto: Modernity in Central Europe, 1918-1945". We have modified the original profile to a 1" inside depth to accommodate an 1/2" strainer for added stability for traveling shows. The original frame had a charcoal finish on cherry. This is often recommended for older sepia tone photographs.
