In Milan there is a strong tradition of artisan workshops, which has been carried on for centuries and, in our small way, we are absolutely proud to be part of it. Our story begins in the 80s, when Walter Porreca and Luigia Torchiana open the first frame shop in via Chiossetto. The starting idea is to make exclusive handcrafted frames available , allowing visitors to take advantage of a wide choice of materials and the experience of those who produce them by hand. In 1995, given the growing demand not only for frames, but also for prints, the decision was made to open a second shop in via Mario Pagano.

BBframe Milan is a frame shop in Milan where you can buy frames and decorations to furnish your home with that pinch of craftsmanship you are looking for. The frame store, with workshop in Piazza Amendola 1, was born from the initiative of Barbara Condò who, after her academic studies, became Senior Consultant for important Italian frame companies, thus maturing the desire to one day have her own frame shop.

After years of silence and passing fashion,  our production is rediscovered and becomes the PROTAGONIST of the art market. The new collecting is born around it, rediscovering the pleasure of owning the frame for one's intrinsic beauty. MADE IN ITALY – TOLOMEO thus becomes a manufacturer of entirely hand-made frames, creating a laboratory that is both a "workshop and an art gallery". It was born in the heart of LAMBRATE,  today a new artistic center, where it has been present since 1986 offering innovation and a wide range of frames created ad hoc for each work.

GF Cornici di De Ponte C

Le Cornici del Chiossetto was born in the 80s, when Walter Porreca, together with his partner Luigia Torchiana, decided to open a frame shop, adopting a simple but also very precise idea: to make craftsmanship the fulcrum of the entire project. The continuous search for the best materials, training to learn as much as possible of the ancient techniques for making frames, together with continuous updating to learn the most modern procedures and keep constantly up to date, have created a solid foundation on which Le Cornici del Chiossetto from always sinks its foundations.

Our shop was born in the second half of the 19th century, probably in the years 1869/70, as a glassmaker, framer and houseware with the "Castelli" sign. Today, Marcello, Enrico's son, makes frames in all styles, hand carved hand, gilded in pure gold, solid woods polished with shellac with the pad technique but also simple and extremely modern profiles. Naturally, an accurate consultancy service is offered.
