My customers would say "I think that frame would overwhelm the artwork."

Yes, that artwork.

Me, I like it. Nice choice. You need a strong frame to handle that piece.
 
I love that line and haven't found one to use it on yet.
Seeing what you did is inspiring. Your use of that liner
or stacked frame inside is great. It creates an area of
visual calm so the busy image doesn't crash into the
pattern of the frame.
 
I agree. Some of the Roma samples are downright ugly unto themselves but when wed with the right art they are drop dead gorgeous!


 
Casetta- Love that frame and have been dying to use it! Great job! What frame is stacked inside??

Cavalier- I have used that Argento frame at least 3 times! Once in the large (mirror) and twice in the small, all three times in the lilac color. Think some of them are disc. if I remember right...

You have to just pull it down and try it- the customer never will, but it could be amazing! :)
 
It definitely goes well with the painting! Roma has some great twists to traditional European moulding, that's for sure.

I think every shop must have some Roma samples that one never use, but they're available just in case. Pour example, this one.

I have sold the Argento series several times. Very expenisve, but beautiful.

Robert, which Roma frame is this?
