Bay Ridge
A Brooklyn frame shop, for more than half a century.
Polizzi frames fine art and the things that live with it: a drawing by a child, a photograph, a diploma, a jersey, a poster. The mouldings run from Nielsen metal to hand-carved 22-carat gold leaf. Nothing is too small, and the large jobs are welcome.

Questions
How do I get a framing quote?
Bring the piece to 8315 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge, or send the size and a photograph through the quote form. Jerry replies by email or phone.
What kinds of frames does Polizzi carry?
Metal, including Nielsen; wood; welded aluminum and brass; plexi-boxes; and hand-carved mouldings finished in 22-carat gold leaf. The shop also makes mirrors.
Can you frame a vintage poster?
Yes. Large antique posters are usually linen-mounted first, which flattens and supports the sheet, then framed behind UV-filtering glass.
