We framed this antique dictionary, which was tattered from age and use, to both showcase its rustic charm and preserve it from any future damage. We float mounted the book and a selection of its leaves on a lustrous but subtle 100-percent Pongee silk fabric-wrapped mat. A classic modern frame profile with maple wood sides and antique white front creates a perfect balance between elements of past and present. A spacer of 1 inch keeps the glass away from the precious surface of the book, as well as emphasizing its three-dimensionality.  

Preserving Family History this Holiday Season #VictorianWedding #1901 At Paris, we use Glass that has UV protection, so the paper and photograph won’t fade any further. Our Mats and Mounting Boards are made of 100% cotton, saving the pieces from acid stains. We use Archival pH neutral glues to mount the pieces, so there wont be discoloration. The preservation techniques we use ensures this photograph & invitation to last for another century! #conservationframing #conservationframingtechniques #archivalframing #parisframeworks #frame #frames #antiquephoto #antiquephotograph #antiqueframe #upperwestside #upperwestsidenyc #1901wedding #victorianweddingdress #victorianweddinginvitations (at Paris Framemakers)
