What's in a frame? There is something to be said about pictures placed in classy, smooth, varnished wooden picture frames. And the selection out there is indeed dizzying at times.
It is not enough to just look for a frame made out of wood, you need to identify and be bit knowledgeable with the type of wood used.
Do you want a wooden frame made of maple, oak, walnut, or birch? (Believe us, there are more wood types than these!) It really depends on the photo you want framed, where you will hang the photo, and of course, your budget.
How is a picture frame made of wood priced? The price of the frame depends on the type of wood, its design and its finishing.
If a frame is made from the lumber of a tree which is particularly known for being durable, expect the price to be quite steep.
Expect the same thing if the frame is old and made of wood coming from a tree which is currently endangered.
These frames will be priced high because apart from being an antique, these old, smooth and varnished wooden frames are known for their high quality, durability and craftsmanship.
Of course, you don't need to go for the pricier ones to have your photo set in a wooden frame. There are tons of online stores offering wooden frames in wholesale or retail and most are of good quality and design.
