The most noticeable feature of a frame is its woodâlike hand-painted, Italian wood looks real good.
Next, the glass. Except, not glass, because it breaks and itâs heavy. Acrylic Plexiglass is the choice alternative for its unbreakability, light weight, and clear transparency.
Finally, the assembly. This takes skilled craftsman using real wood glue, V-nail joinery, and their love for art.
