Eli Wilner & Company, a leading New York City art gallery that specializes in American and European frames from the 19th through early 20th century, today introduced the first upscale plasma television frame. The high-end television frame is available in over 3000 styles and is specifically designed to fit any interior and blend with surrounding furnishings.
For years, Eli Wilner & Company have created perfect marriages by uniting paintings with appropriate frames, enhancing both their quality and beauty. Among these are the paintings of Renoir, Monet, Picasso, Sargent, Eakins, Church, Bierstadt, Hartley, and O’Keeffe. The decision to move their product into the mainstream for plasma televisions was a natural progression.
“Plasma televisions are staple items in most of our clients, homes; but, many clients found that their televisions didn’t blend with their other art and collectibles. We knew we could solve that issue by creating synergy in their homes with our large selection of frames,” said Eli Wilner, Founder and CEO of Eli Wilner & Company. “These frames make the television experience truly come to life and they take away some of that harsh electronic look. Home theater systems should blend with the rest of your home; not stick out.”
Eli Wilner & Company is the world’s largest resource for antique American and European frames. The company has completely reframed 27 paintings for the White House. As specialists in period framing for over 20 years, Eli Wilner & Company has worked with museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and auction houses such as Sotheby’s and Christie’s.
