Know before you buy
No. Because each piece uses an authentic, imported European window frame, you should expect natural variations in the wood grain, texture, and the specific pattern of the chippy paint finish. These unique characteristics are part of the frame's historical charm.
Given the dimensions of 44" x 22" and the weight of a solid wood vintage frame, we recommend using heavy-duty wall anchors or mounting directly into wall studs to ensure the piece is secure.
No, the artwork is printed directly onto natural canvas and is not covered by glass. This allows the texture of the canvas to remain visible and complements the rustic aesthetic of the vintage frame.
Each piece is made to order, so please allow for a 14-day production lead time before your item is ready to ship.
No, the finish is determined by the original state of the imported vintage window frame. The chippy paint aesthetic is inherent to the specific piece of wood used for your order.
