Our traditional/ antique style picture frame selection consists of classic profiles (shapes) and elements such as the classic ogee shape, the cove profile and the solid or decorative panel. Ornamental details, organic patterns, corner ornamentation and decorative filigree are typical components of a classic/ traditional frame.
