From Old Master to Modernist, the Gill & Lagodich Fine Period & Replica Frames & Mirrors inventory spans over four hundred years and numbers over two thousand period frames, European and American. Founded in TriBeCa in 1991, our gallery continues to provide custom framing services, collection appraisals, curatorial and identification expertise to museums and private collectors, architects, interior designers, and interested individuals.  

Exhibitions, Lectures, Presentations & Gallery Tours Beginning with dedicated frame exhibitions in Santa Monica and Laguna Art Museum in 1996, principals of Gill & Lagodich have lectured on the subject of period frame history, fabrication, and restoration; presented walk-through gallery talks in their own gallery and many museums, led museum docent and professional educator training sessions, and conducted hands-on period frame clinics for selected museum, institutional, and private groups, as well as national arts and appraisal conferences.

Gill & Lagodich antique and replica frames have appeared in magazine ads, editorials, and numerous performances from the Metropolitan Opera stage to television productions (Law & Order, Blacklist) and feature films. With the same historical accuracy, attention to period detail and hand-craftsmanship we give all our museum framing projects, Gill & Lagodich provided 41 antique and custom-made replica frames for the pivotal Metropolitan Museum scenes in Warner Bros. 2019 movie adaptation of Donna Tartt’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel “The Goldfinch”. 

Gill & Lagodich Studios produce the highest quality gilded and wood antique frame restoration, sizing services, custom-antiqued mirror glass to fit in our frames, custom-made frame replicas, and fabrication of contemporary gilded and patinated wood, gessoed, and ebonized frames designed by artists, architects, decorators, and our own in-house designers. Many frames are available as prop rentals for print ads and movie shoots.
