Roma Frame Moulding Crafted in Italy

The Roma line of frames is our flagship framing option. Tomas has chosen his favorites frames from the many moulding styles Roma has to offer. Roma builds premier Italian frame moulding using the highest standards in quality, style and sustainability. Roma takes great care and pride in knowing that their mouldings are made using only woods from active reforestation programs. Their suppliers adhere to strict guidelines and use reclaimed wood when appropriate. In addition, they also use recycled and environmentally-friendly packaging materials whenever possible. We carry a specific selection of Roma frames but if you would like to browse all of the wonderful Roma frames to find your own favorite go to RomaMoulding, and then contact us requesting a quote for the moulding style and size you want.

The Tabacchino line shown below, is our most popular frame and complements many of Tomas' images. We offer this style in three different color options: Bourbon, Cigar Leaf and Dark Ash as well as in six different widths: 1-1/8, 1-5/8, 2-3/4, 2-5/8, 4 and 4-1/2 inches. The detailed texture of the “piuma di ulivo” in the Tabacchino collection is achieved through various hand applications; thus preserving the warmth and beauty of the unique aged by nature’s elements that roll across the hills of the Tuscan countryside.

The leafed finish of the Terra mouldings has the appearance of ancient etched stone. The lashings of years of harsh weather wearing away layers of material at different stages, creating a uniquely textured finish. These frames are sold in two widths 1-3/8 and 2-5/8 inches and two color options of Stone Etched Gold and Stone Etched Pewter.

Roma Liners

Roma Moulding Liners are a wonderful way to put a white or black space between your print and the frame. Liners are made of solid wood and are covered with a layer of cotton linen. The liner must be ordered in conjunction with a frame but it can be ordered for any frame we offer not just the Roma Line.

Barnwood Rustic

Barnwood rustic frames are hand-made in Provo, Utah of reclaimed barnwood and various stained wood moldings with added features of barbed wire, inserts and overlays. These rustic frames are a perfect fit for your ranch house or cabin.

Due to the nature of barnwood, there will be variations in the color and texture of the wood on each frame. Rather than being a defect, these variations add personality and beauty to each frame.
