| All frakturs are original artwork, not filled in forms. Because of the nature of original artwork, there may be small variations in each piece. The certificates are done on assorted parchment papers - others on fine laid papers. The certificates designs are copyrighted, to protect their integrity and your investment. Only the finest quality materials are used in framing to assure the heirloom quality of the certificates. |

The frames used are designed especially for the selections shown - and are handcrafted in Berks County, Pennsylvania. The style is a flat moulding with or without corner blocks, typical of 18th and 19th century country frames. NOTE: Please specify "with" or "without" corner blocks on your order. If you do not specify, the item will be sent as shown. |
