Classic wall decor selections cull from timeless, and timely, inspirations to create a fresh take on traditional. Reproductions of antique documents and paintings, plus decorative or functional objects, lend a sense of wit and savvy to wall art.

Old World grace is the dominant theme in Annie James' antiqued canvas reproduction giclee ($100).
A series of gradated vases and pedestals present a classically elegant perspective on wall art from Global Views.
Designed by Mark Abrams for Oriental Accent, the three-panel wall hanging features classic coromandel styling with ebony finish and gilded floral relief ($450 to $495).

Handcarved wooden cookie molds, approximately 70 years old, depict nostalgia in everyday objects and are surrounded by a custom-made frame from Sarreid ($2,975).
