If you have a question about picture framing...

Picture frame - Materials, descriptions and codes

Picture frame descriptions provided for each product are the moulding
manufacturers description of the colour, profile if available and material.

Picture frames in the aluminium section are solid aluminium.

Picture frames in the the natural section are the material in the description, the grain and colour may vary, even within the same frame.

All other picture frames are wooden based with the exception of Picture frames with :

( veneer ) in the product code, these are wooden with a solid wooden veneer.
( resin ) in the product code, these are formed plastic.
( MDF ) in the product code, these are medium density fibreboard.

Picture Frames with ( high pattern ) in the product code are mouldings with a high pattern,
the high pattern on these frames when mitered will not meet across the miter.

In the images above you can see the moulding is mitered correctly piece to piece
but the high pattern on the left piece does not meet the high pattern on the
right piece – this is normal and inherent when mitering material with a high pattern.
