The Framer's Workshop, Berkeley, CA, Do-it-Yourself and Custom Framing Services, Finished Corner Frames

Finished Corner Frames, also known as Closed Corner Frames, are the ultimate in framing quality and craftmanship. Finished corner picture frames have a layer of gesso over the mitre joint. They are then surfaced with gold leafing or paint, for a seamless continuing design. Hard wood frames are either made with mortoise and tenon joints or are finely sanded on the corners to create an invisible seam. Since these products are custom manufactured to your exact specifications, delivery time is usually 4-6 weeks, so we ask you to plan ahead. We now carry a selection of these closed corner designs, and can accomodate most special requests. Just ask to see our color catalogues. Our designers will help you pick the perfect closed corner frame to compliment your work.
