Paris Frameworks framed this exquisite Sheila Metzner photograph in a thin handmade frame with a black rub that will lighten over time. We used a thick 100% cotton mat to emphasize the luxurious quality of this print.

These two vintage prints were designed by the famous fashion illustrator, René Gruau for the cabaret Le Lido in Paris: Bonjour la nuit (Hello The Night) in 1971 and Cocorico (Cock-a-doodle-doo) in 1981. We chose the same frame for both since they were going to be hung together and worked great as a pair. The inside of the frame is a 6K White Gold Leaf which enhances the brightness of the scenes. The sides of the frame have a black rub that adds structure to the pieces without being too stark- how a black paint would look. Together these elements support the pieces without being a distraction.

For the painting pictured above, our client wanted to use framing as a way to play with color and movement.  To do this, we worked with her to select a canvas float frame made of tiger maple, stained light orange.  The stain brings one of the least dominant colors forward, and the figure of the wood extends the action of the paint drips - the frame has become part of the piece.  It was an inspired use of color and pattern - perfect for a painting filled with vibrant movement.
