From the Castro to Divisadero — Framing San Francisco with Style and Soul

At Underglass Custom Picture Framing in San Francisco, every frame tells a story  and this one feels right at home in the heart of the city. For a vibrant, retro-style painting of the Divisadero neighborhood, we designed a frame that honors both the art and the architecture that inspired it.

The ornate, vintage-style frame in a matte black finish recalls the intricate details of San Francisco’s Victorian homes while adding a contemporary edge that lets the painting’s color and energy take center stage.

As always, the craftsmanship goes beyond the surface. We used museum-quality conservation materials, including UV-filtering glass to protect the art from fading and a hidden spacer to keep the painting from touching the glass, small details that ensure beauty and preservation for years to come. Every layer of this design reflects our 40 years of experience framing in San Francisco’s Castro District, where thoughtful design meets craftsmanship that lasts.

As the holidays approach, now’s the perfect time to frame something that celebrates your local pride or to give a gift that captures the art and energy of life in San Francisco. Visit, email or call us at Underglass to start your custom framing project today.
