It's the perfect time to get something custom framed at Foursided! Perhaps you’ve recently graduated and are looking for the perfect frame for your diploma. Or maybe you just moved into a new apartment and the walls are in dire need of some fresh art. Whatever the case, our custom framing locations are happy to assist you in achieving your decorating goals!
Our framing stores offer a myriad of different framing options ranging in price, color, size, and any other qualities you could think of! One frame we’re currently excited about is the burlwood tortoise shell frame from Roma Moulding, a premium frame provider that creates high quality frames in Italy. Their Burlwood Collection “celebrates nature’s most captivating artistry - the rare, swirling patterns and organic beauty found only in burl.” Burlwood is a unique wood grain pattern that forms naturally when a tree experiences some sort of trauma - such as injury, stress, or fungal infection. What initially began as a stressful moment in the life of the tree creates a unique and highly sought after swirling pattern in the wood. The organic nature of these burls means that no two pieces are alike - each one is totally one of a kind!
These frames are hand-crafted in Italy and feature a highly polished burlwood veneer finish. The distinctive nature of these frames makes them perfect for framing your favorite vinyl record or antique piece. Our framing team mounted a vintage book of sea life illustrations on a cream mat within this frame, balancing the organic shapes of the shells with the natural patterns within the wood grain.
Check out the tortoise shell frames (and the rest of the burl wood collection) in person at one of our two framing locations! (5111 N. Clark in Andersonville or 2959 N. Clark in Lakeview). You can also schedule a framing consultation online by following this link!
