Tradition meets craftsmanship: picture frames made by masters of the industry!

This is also reflected in the long history of a small, traditional company in Vienna, which was founded in 1851 by a great-grandfather. Just a few minutes from his current location on Sieveringer Straße, the company's author, who has been working there for 41 years, has created a solid base for his craft. Back when he was 15 and started his apprenticeship, he took over the business on Billrothstrasse. Today, passion and dedication are about more than just offering products.
The offer includes a variety of high-quality services: from picture frames to mirrors to small glazing. Window repairs and glass doors were also part of the previous offering, although the latter are no longer carried out on a large scale. While the company used to be a large company with its own glassworks, today it is a small-scale operation with only one part-time employee.
