    Are you aware of really good sources of original, antique frames for paintings? Of course, contemporary frames may be made or bought but I was wondering on good sources of original, 19th or early 20th century frames.

    I buy frames when ever I can, wherever I can. This includes buying artwork of minimal value just for the frames. I tend to buy more this way for less money than I would if I am just buying frames. On occasion, I have talked dealers out of the frames for a lower than asking price and let them keep the art.
