About Us
Our family has been in the art business and manufacturing high quality frames for more than seven decades, finding a place for classic design in modern decoration.
Until we developed this line of products our company only framed private art collections and museum pieces, so we understand the significance of introducing a standardized line of framed mirrors. We are committed in keeping the same quality and attention to detail we know are customers value.
We understand that throughout history people have been evolving their senses to assess their surroundings which has resulted in acquiring a taste for beauty in objects. Creating a pleasurable environment has turned into an art by trying to find the ideal conditions for well being, concluding that beauty can make people happy by reducing stress.
We know that feeling comfortable in our surroundings comes hand in hand with admiring the beauty in them, so it is as important to the human condition as any other healthy habit.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What materials are the frames made of?
The whole structure (3 moldings) is made of wood. All wooden surfaces are finished with varnish, paint, primers and/or sealants. The metallic portion has a wooden core and it is wrapped in an aluminum sheet.
2. Are your products compliant to American standards of health and safety?
All the wooden components of our products are processed, treated and/or finished (varnished, painted or tinted), complying to rules and regulations and are not subject to impediments related to timber being imported from Mexico to the United States.
Vanzzini Arts + Decor selects wood suppliers that only sell products from responsibly managed forests. Our processes and products act in accordance to the ordinance of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), part of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
We understand the impact our commercial activities can have on the environment and we take it very seriously, sourcing our products only from trustworthy suppliers who strictly comply with environmental sustainability practices.
Our boxes are made from recycled materials. We made sure the package that carries your frame and mirror is durable and tough, but we also considered the environmental impact cardboard and other packing materials can have on our planet. We chose a box made from reprocessed paper to contribute as much as possible to forest sustainability. We encourage you to reuse it or recycle it yourself.
Regarding safety, we understand the potential risks associated with mirrors and we have created a series of instructions you can find in our Journal section to handle the products properly in order to avoid any harm during the unpacking, hanging or placement process. We want you to have a mirror that lasts a lifetime, but our first priority is your safety. We supply all our frames with heavy duty hangers, and we encourage their usage when installing them on a wall, in order to avoid a potential safety hazard. We recommend professional installation every time.
3. How are orders shipped?
Before accepting payment, the cost of each order has to be determined adding the shipping costs separately, so you can assess every element of the sale individually. Our products are delivered ex-works (EXW) to the courier. They will take care of the delivery to the chosen address.
You will be notified when the order is ready to ship. Expect a 12-16 week period for delivery. We understand it may seem quite a long time but the hand-crafted and hand-carved process that allows us to make high quality products takes some time and that is what makes our pieces so exclusive.
In case your order is ready to ship before our normal waiting period we’ll gladly notify you and we’ll make sure the product is delivered as soon as possible.
Our shipping and logistics suppliers are specialized in handling furniture and mirrors and they will provide us with a tracking number to follow the delivery process of your order.
4. Are your products hand-crafted?
Yes. All our frames are hand-crafted and hand-assembled. To manufacture them we follow the options requested by the customer during the ordering process of our website. For this reason all our sales are final. If you haven’t received an order confirmation we may still be able to cancel it, so please contact us immediately.
5. Cleaning and care of our frames.
Aluminum is a very resistant material and it will look as good as new with simple cleaning and dusting. The wooden moldings finished in varnish, gold or silver leaf can be cleaned with a normal duster or a dry rag.
We suggest the mirror is dusted or cleaned with a damp microfiber rag only if needed. Do not use cleaning solutions as they may harm the finish of the frame.
Caring for your frame is pretty simple: make sure it’s placed on a dry surface, preferably indoors. Humidity and damp surfaces can have a swelling effect on wood, altering its condition. We also recommend that you keep it away from direct sunlight for extended periods as varnish tends to deteriorate.
