Questions You Should Ask When Choosing a Metal Photo Frame
With the huge selection of metal picture frames available, sometimes it can be difficult picking the one that’s right for you. To help you narrow down your search, use these helpful tips and questions to help you find the right frame quickly and easily.
#1- Frame Budget: What is my budget?
If youre not sure how much you have to spend to get the type of metal frame you want here are some rough guidelines for different types of metal frames, based on a 4×6 size, that can help:
- Under $10 – basic aluminum frames, simple solid brass frames
- $10 and up – basic silver plated frames, decorative metal frames, steel frames.
- $30 and up – decorative silver plated frames
- $50 and up – decorative hand made solid pewter frames
- $100 and up – decorative solid sterling silver frames
#2- Keepsake frames: Do I want it to be a treasured keepsake?
If youre looking for a high quality metal frame that will become a treasured keepsake, then there are basically three types of frames to consider: solid pewter frames, silver plated frames and sterling silver frames. These three types of frames are durable and made to last plus they have a distinct look of quality that sets them apart from other types of metal frames.
#3- Frame Style: What picture frame style do I want?
No matter what your preferred style, you’ll always find a metal frame style to match. Here are a few examples of types of metal frames that have a distinct style. Just keep in mind that there is a huge variation in frame styles with different types of metal frames.
- Elegant: Silver plated frames, sterling silver frames, metal decorative frames, and metal jeweled frames
- Casual: Decorative metal frames or solid pewter frames.
- Professional: Aluminum frames, silver plated frames or sterling silver frames
- Modern or Traditional style: Almost any type of metal frame, including aluminum frames, steel frames, pewter frames, silver plate frames, sterling silver frames, fit into this style category.
#4- Color: What color of frame do I want?
Metal frames commonly come in various gold or silver tones depending upon the metal material. One thing to be aware of is that a silver frame could be made of pewter or aluminum and not necessarily made of sterling silver or silver plate. So the wording “silver frame” doesn’t mean the material it’s made from but instead describes the color. This is the case for pewter picture frames as well. Unless it’s specifically identified as “solid pewter,” it’s most likely describing the color of the frame instead of the material.
Metal picture frames also come in a wide variety of colors. You can get aluminum frames in colors like silver, gold, black, blue and copper or you can find metal frames with bright enamel finishes or decorated with beads or crystals.
#5- Finish: What type of metal finish do I prefer?
The most common metal finishes are matte, shiny, brushed and antiqued. Unless the finish is specifically called brushed, antique or matte, it will normally be a shiny metal finish.
#6- Engraved Frame: Do I want to engrave my frame?
If you want to engrave a frame, be sure to choose a frame that is identified as an engraved frame, or an engravable frame. This means that the frame is a solid material with the same color metal throughout the depth of the frame. It also has to have a smooth, flat surface for the engraving. Engraved frames are available as silver plated, solid pewter or sterling silver frames.
#7- Size: Is there a specific size of frame needed?
If you are framing a standard sized photo, you should be able to use a readymade frame. Readymade frames are the easiest and most economical way to frame because there are so many standard sizes to choose from.
For a piece of artwork or non-standard picture size, you will probably need a custom metal frame. How much you want to spend is also a factor that comes into play. You can either buy a custom frame and have it put together for you, or you can buy the size you need and assemble it yourself. Many metal frames are simple to put together by yourself, so this is a good option if you are handy at putting things together and you want to save some money.
Now that you have answered these 7 simple questions you should be able to easily and quickly choose the frame that fits your needs.
