They changed the application of gold leaf for the worse
The first of these frames I bought a few years ago looked like you expect, applied gold leaf to a prepared frame. But these current ones look like it has been spraying in strips. It is dull and has nowhere near the shine that they formerly did with the old method. And nearly twice the price they used to be!

I'm looking elsewhere for gold leaf frames now and I'm prepared to pay more as I'm seriously unhappy with these particular "gold leaf" frames.

Hello Jacqueline. We value your feedback about our Gold Leaf Frames. We’re so sorry to hear the frame was not what you were expecting. We have not changed vendors therefore, the gold leafing is being applied the same as before. We will look into the moulding and make sure there are no other customers with your concern. If you have any concerns with your order, please contact us. We’ll be happy to send you a replacement order at no cost to you, or we can process a refund or company credit. We accept returns for all items except Outlet Shop frames. If an item ordered from us (for example a frame) simply doesn’t suit your artwork, or the finish is not what you expected, we can gladly accept a return against an order within 45 days of the order date. Thank you for your feedback.

Gives an antique feel
I used this to frame a print of a 1850's-ish French drawing and it gives the work a nice feel.

Made by artists for artists?
This is a pre-made, not custom frame. In other words the manufacturer had plenty of time to close those corners and cover the joinery for a neat look. But, nope.
The "distressed" look of the genuine artificial gold leaf looks like someone took a palm circular sander and a bad piece of sandpaper to the flat face, making zillions of little tiny circles. How natural looking -- NOT.

Fredric we appreciate your honest review. We look to make product improvements based on your feedback. The frame is made of 100% wood with a gold leafing overlay. The overlay is designed to give an 'aged' appearance. Please let us know if you would like to return the frame, we can send you a return label for this frame also. We want to make sure the frames meet your expectations.

A Suggestion
I've ordered this size frame several times for presenting my smaller paintings. I think it would look good with a narrow bead around the 5x7 opening. Even a similar frame with the same or wider width but with a narrow bead of molding around the opening but with just a plain outside perimeter with no molding.

Very nice value for a plein air frame
As an artist that competes in plein air Festivals around the country, the framing of my artwork is very important. I was pleased to discover this company through the DoneGood app extension which provides ethical alternatives to many companies, and I will use this company again in the future for my framing needs.

Nice gold color
I bought two of these gold leaf frames in the hard-to-find 6 x 8 size. The gold is nice - not too bright. There is some inconsistency in the finish. Very fast delivery!

Two reasons: First, I belong to the Santa Barbara Art Association and a member recommended your site when I admired his frames.
Secondly, I could not find 9"x12" frames easily although that size canvas is readily available.

What is glazing and backing?
A shopper on Feb 20, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Glazing refers to the glass used in the frame, typically for photos, prints or art on paper. Canvas art doesn't need glazing. Backing is also used with glass to protect the back of the artwork or photo.
It looks like I may be limited to on the size of the matting? My actual picture needing framed is 53" W by 27H. Can I get double matting that large?
Scott on Mar 29, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Hello Patrick. Our Custom Mats have a max size of 32"x40", and our OVERSIZED MATS have a max size of 40"x60". We do apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for your inquiry.
Can I pay by checking account or check?
Barbara N on Mar 15, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes, we accept checks as a form or payment along with all the major credit cards. Please call in and place the order first, then mail the check to 2103 Brentwood Street High Point, NC 27263. We cab be reached at 1-800-332-8884. Thanks.
would this work with a 1 1/2 in canvas thickness?
patsy k on Feb 4, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Hello Patsy! The depth/rabbet of the frame is 1/2" which will cause your 1 1/2" canvas to protrude out the frame by a full inch. Please consider the frame below as an option which has a depth of 1 7/8". Thank you for your inquiry!
