Short answer: Pick the frame colour that matches the metal or wood already in your room. Gold suits warm, classic rooms and old-master art; silver and champagne suit cool, light rooms; wood-look frames suit rooms full of wooden furniture; black gives a crisp, modern edge. Every FrameForTV frame fits Samsung The Frame (2021–2026) and The Frame Pro.
Start with what is already in the room
Look at the metal and wood around the TV: lamp bases, door handles, picture frames, the console below. A frame that repeats one of those tones looks planned; a frame that introduces a new one can look added later.
- Brass, gold or warm wood around you: choose gold.
- Chrome, steel or white and grey walls: choose silver or champagne.
- Lots of wooden furniture: choose a wood-look frame.
- Black metal, dark shelving or a modern room: choose black.
Gold TV frames
Gold makes The Frame look most like a painting in a museum. Not all gold is shiny: Kyoto Gold and Lisbon Aged Gold are brushed and antiqued, Lisbon Gold is a clear, bright gold, and Rome Gold adds carved ornament.
Best with: oil paintings, landscapes, still lifes; warm wood and cream walls. See all gold TV frames.
Silver and champagne TV frames
Madrid Antique Silver is the truest silver. Lisbon Champagne sits between silver and gold, so it works in rooms that mix both. Rome White Gold is ivory with gold details, for light, airy rooms.
Best with: black-and-white photography, winter landscapes, cool grey or white walls. See all silver TV frames.
Wood-look TV frames
Our wood-look frames are a lightweight composite with a realistic wood-grain finish, not real wood. Kyoto has a walnut tone, Madrid a mahogany look with a gold inner lip, and Rome Dark Brown adds carving.
Best with: wooden furniture and floors, botanical prints, warm interiors. See all wood-look TV frames.
Black TV frames
Madrid Black is a deep, stepped black frame with a thin gold beaded edge. It gives the screen a crisp outline, like a modern gallery frame.
Best with: modern art, graphic prints, black-and-white photography, black metal or dark shelving.

Frequently asked questions
Can I change the frame later?
Yes. The frame hooks on with an elastic backing, so you can lift it off and fit another one. Nothing is glued or screwed to the TV.
Will a gold frame look too shiny?
Choose a brushed or antiqued gold such as Kyoto Gold or Lisbon Aged Gold. They glow rather than glitter.
Is the wood-look frame real wood?
No. It is a lightweight composite with a realistic wood-grain finish, which keeps it light on the TV and consistent in colour.
