Pre-Raphaelite Frame
Re: Pre-Raphaelite Frame
Love it.
I like that style of frame.
This is one I did a while back.
That image was never actually in the frame. I 'shopped it in for a framing pun competition.
The Watts towers in LA.

Re: Pre-Raphaelite Frame
Great looking frames from both of you!
Is the outside frame a running pattern or compo laid on?

Re: Pre-Raphaelite Frame
Nice frame Tim! What is the leaf used? The outer moulding looks like one from the Winther Brown/ Richard Burbridge range perhaps?

Re: Pre-Raphaelite Frame
the outer leaf is compo
we took a cast and re carved it from an old frame
the inner bead is from an original Victorian mould and the punch work with two sizes of steel nail punch
the pattern was drawn freehand and then traced onto the frame.
it was good to make. quite a challenge

Re: Pre-Raphaelite Frame
It looks great but quite challenging to make. Hopefully you'll post some more of your work!
