For decades, the name Eli Wilner & Company has been synonymous with picture frames of the highest quality, hand-crafted using old-world artisanship. Following the conclusion of prominent museum exhibitions or important art auctions, frames the Company loaned for those occasions were returned and became part of the Eli Wilner Classic Frame Collection. Now, the more than four hundred beautiful frames constituting this remarkable Collection will be presented at auction for those who appreciate the very finest. Inasmuch as some view these frames as masterpieces in and of themselves, simply add a mirror or nest them on the wall.

*Were an individual or an institution to order a bespoke frame from Wilner (all of Wilner's frames are bespoke) the client would be quoted the gallery price.
