Item Description
This photo, "Woman by the Sea," was taken by Holly Vetter at Trinidad Harbor in 2010. This lovely peice measures 11.5" x 13.5".
Vetter Photo Frames is a family business located in Humboldt County, CA. All of their frames are made from re-purposed redwood. Each project is therefore one of a kind. Their redwood comes from homes, businesses, fences and Humboldt Bay. The wood recovered from the bay is called "picklewood." Picklewood takes on a blacken look from the salt water. Some of the wood dates back to 1919, the age of their home. Colors vary by age and type of redwood. Heartwood, old growth, and second growth give the projects their unique look.
Frames are made by Ron and Holly Vetter. They spline each frame to ensure it lasts for generations. Each frame is finished with a mixture of boiled linseed oil and gum turpentine. They also have glass to protect the photo.
