Moulding ID please
Can anyone point me in the direction of the "stepped" white frame that's been used on the left and right hand frame in the picture? Thanks

It's called a Gluck frame, after the artist Gluck. Reference to Art of the Picture Frame NPG. You can make it by stacking F5, F6 and F7 from R&H then painting it white.

Re: Moulding ID please
I never knew that there was a name for that particular profile, but I used to stack unwanted mouldings in bargain bundles, other clearance mouldings and larger quantities of waste from batches of frames like that profile at one time to shift them as ready made frames. I no longer have much space to display ready made frames, so I get rid of more of my waste in the dumpster now.

Re: Moulding ID please
Thanks for the input. Good to know that it can be recreated even if it can't be bought off the shelf. Definitely learnt something today
