Harrison by Larson Juhl
Stately, timeworn and authentic, Larson-Juhl’s new Harrison collection captures the soulful look of antique veneer mouldings with its naturally imperfect detailing. Harrison’s hand applied finishings create a genuinely aged look. All of the rubbed, antiqued patterning in Harrison is set off by the rough-hewn veneer. The Blackstone, Smoke and Whiskey finishes in the Harrison collection are as handsome as they are beautiful. These tones offer a range of warm finishes on historical profiles. The handcrafted detailing and natural imperfections translate into a look embodying a well-lived life, a look created over time.

Harlow by Larson Juhl
This collection reflects the elegant, polished look of Modernisim and Art Deco, popularized in the Golden Age of Hollywood Glamour. The mirrored finish and clean geometric shapes are like a reinvention of 1930’s design trends. You may be thinking, what can you put in a mirrored finish frame? They look great for Modern, Hollywood Glam, Deco, Cycles, Aviation, a Little Princess or a Woman who loves Bling!

Sitch by Larson Juhl
Larson-Juhl’s new Stitch collection is inspired by the great resurgence in all needle arts, including cross-stitch, quilting, needlepoint and embroidery. Stitch’s vast array of finishes is derived from the best selling colors from top craft thread manufacturer, DMC Floss. The Stitch collection’s finishes feature matte tones with natural wood toned back edge that work perfectly not only with needle arts, but also floral art, kid’s art, landscapes as well as both modern and traditional artworks. Stitch is a FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified collection. The collection is available in twelve finishes whose names are matched to thread of the same name from DMC, including Christmas Green, Pumpkin Orange, Light Citron Green and Medium Cranberry.

Foundry by Larson Juhl
Embodying the essence of aged, raw materials found in urban, contemporary settings, Larson-Juhl’s new Foundry collection offers a sophisticated, modern look to answer the ever popular Industrial Chic trend. Foundry’s wide selection of five transitional, geometric profile shapes and a flat fillet complement the complex, industrial look of the collection’s three metallic finishes. The Brass, Iron and Rust tones in Foundry’s palette offer a soft mix of color paired with a worn metal edge to add a sense of age. The oxidized matte patinas of the three finishes create an ideal contrast to the sheen of the edges of the profiles, which have been subtly distressed.
