Sleek & Modern

Ornate ...
... & Gothic

An ornate, black swept frame is ideal for a gothic theme or more traditional look. Due to the frame style, more attention is placed on the frame however it can help to complement your picture appropriately.

In particular, ornate swept frames are perfect for wedding photographs as they are more eye-catching and make for a high-end addition to your home.

Be Adventurous

Don’t be afraid to experiment with your frame presentation options. With multiple pictures and frames you can be adventurous and create a photo wall. This could be anything from a traditional selection of lined up frames to a stairway photo wall or something slightly more quirky.

Showcase Multiple Pictures

Consider displaying multiple images within a single black frame with a multi aperture framing option. Choose from single or multiple rows or columns of a standardised size or mix it up with a selection of opening sizes for some extra variety.

Follow The Trend

A current trend with regards to black picture frames is using a white mount with a black border around the picture opening. This helps to further draw the eye to the picture and provides an added style element.

As A Gift
