Vermont Hardwoods is proud to offer a variety of picture frame finishes.
The industrial revolution made it feasible for wide scale production mouldings, but it was not until much later that prefinished picture frame moulding became available. Likewise, at Vermont Hardwoods, we started out with only unfinished products but we continually refine and add to our offerings as the market dictates.
There is considerable variation in color in the final product, as wood naturally varies. Further, most woods change color with age and exposure to light, some quite dramatically. Cherry is especially susceptible to darkening, almost appearing to change into a completely different species. While more subtle, Walnut actually lightens and becomes more of a golden color over a long period of time. If matching the sample is important to you or your customer we suggest you look at our New Traditions line. Additionally, it’s difficult to adequately capture the true colors in a photograph, and different monitors or screens will show the same photo differently. The pictures on this page are only to give you a general idea of the various options. For the best experience, consider ordering our swatches or corner samples.
