Start with the art
One light wood frame, every temperature
Hickory is soft enough for pastel art and warm enough for bold color, which is why it is so easy to live with.
Warm
Desert gold and sunset color glow against a light wood frame. The wood echoes the warmth in the print, so the wall feels sunny.
Shop Earth TonesCool
Blue water and light wood belong together, like a beach house in morning light. The frame keeps cool art friendly and relaxed.
Shop CoastalQuiet
Black and white photography in Hickory feels gentle and modern, not stark. It is a calm way to bring in a classic image.

Where Hickory framed art works best
The same frame changes character from room to room. Here is how to use it in each one.
01
On a gallery wall or in a hallway
Hickory frames add a natural thread through a hallway or a gallery wall. Keep the gaps even, two to three inches, and let the frames repeat while the art changes.
02
For one large statement piece
A light wood frame lets an oversized photograph feel warm instead of heavy. Over a dining table or a sofa, one big piece in Hickory sets the tone for the room. Sizes go up to the 42" x 62" Collector.
03
Mixed with other finishes
Hickory is an easy partner. Pair it with Black for contrast, or with Heritage Walnut for a layered wood-on-wood look. Repeat each finish at least twice, keep the borders the same, and the mix holds together.
In the bedroom
Hang soft, sunny pieces above the bed, sized to about two-thirds of the headboard. Hickory keeps the room light in the morning and gentle at night.
In the bathroom
A Hickory frame adds a natural note to a clean, bright bathroom. Coastal prints look right at home.
In the kitchen or dining room
A Hickory-framed photograph picks up the light wood of a table or an open shelf, and brings color to the room without crowding it.

Questions about Hickory frames
Is Hickory a light or dark frame?
Hickory is our light, natural wood finish. It is soft enough for pale rooms and warm enough to stand out on a white wall.
What art looks best in a Hickory frame?
Sun-washed and earthy art looks right in Hickory: sand, sea blue, sage and soft gold. Black and white photography looks relaxed and modern in it too.
Do light wood frames go with white walls?
Yes. Against a white wall, a Hickory frame reads as a soft, warm outline, and the photograph still gets all the attention.
Hickory or Heritage Walnut: which is better?
Hickory is lighter and more natural, and suits sun-washed art and pale floors. Heritage Walnut is our deepest finish and deepens golden and rust tones. Choose by the art and the room.
Can you mix Hickory frames with black or white?
You can. Repeat each finish at least twice, keep the spacing even, and the mix looks deliberate.
Are wood frames still in style?
Yes. Natural wood has always had a place on a gallery wall, because it adds warmth that other finishes cannot. With real photography inside, a Hickory frame will look right for years.
