Questions
Frequently asked questions
Direct answers about Heart to Art's custom framing, mirrors, and commercial services in Southern California.
How much does custom framing cost in Southern California?+
Custom framing pricing depends on size, materials, glass (including museum or UV options), molding complexity, and whether hand carving or gold/silver leaf finishing is required. Heart to Art manufactures in-house, which keeps costs competitive compared with fully outsourced shops. Call or text (818) 535-8780 with dimensions and photos for a quote on your project.
Does Heart to Art do gold leaf or hand-carved frames?+
Yes. All carvings are done by hand in our studio, and finishing — including gold leaf, silver leaf, and custom surface treatments — is completed in-house. From sunburst mirrors to custom molding profiles, carving and finishing are core Heart to Art services.
Does Heart to Art work with hotels and commercial developers?+
Yes. Since 1988 we have supplied custom framing, mirrors, art acquisitions, and installation for hospitality, restaurants, and residential developers — including projects for names such as Four Seasons, Wynn, Omni, and major home builders. We handle volume production, coordinated deliveries, and on-site installation across Southern California.
