Offering unique hand crafted museum quality Theorem Paintings
framed in handmade, hand painted frames
By Nancy Rosier of Williamsburg, Virginia




 

 All the grained frames are hand built and hand painted...
False grained frames are a traditional art form that were done about the same time period as theorems 1790 - 1860. Our frames are made from poplar which is the hardest of the soft wood family. Each of our false grained frames are hand built and painted. Nancy has found that by combining the two art forms - theorems and false grained frames - she can offer a truly unique piece of fine art for your home or business.
