Marquetry photo frames produced the hard way, by hand. Laser technology machines are used, to properly size the thickness of the veneer. The mouldings are cut and joined together. The backside is covered with soft velvet, so the beauty of the photo frame is astonishing from all points of view. This marquetry photo frame is built to last, year after year. An absolutely valuable purchase. Moulding 3/4This photo frame is on sale because I didn't order the distressed look. I was shipped the wrong frame!
