A frame in the making — each gesture, each detail, each layer of gold leaf is a tribute to the art of craftsmanship.
From every angle, the precision reveals itself. Nothing is left to chance.
At Van Thienen, every frame is a story, written by hand. 🫶🏻

Honoring Women in Craftsmanship ✨👩🏻‍🎨

On this International Women’s Day, Van Thienen wants to celebrate the skilled hands, sharp minds, and creative spirits of women artisans around the world. From gilders to sculptors, textile artists to master framers, their dedication to craftsmanship shapes the beauty that surrounds us.

True artistry is not just about preserving tradition—it’s about pushing boundaries, innovating, and leaving a mark for future generations. Today, we honor the women who make, restore, and transform with their craft.

Here’s to the women shaping the art of tomorrow, one masterpiece at a time.
