George Baker Picture Frames

Profile

Husband-and-wife owners George and Sandra Baker combined their experience working for art dealers and auction houses to open Hudson City Antiques 2002. The Bakers specialize in  antique wooden picture frames and on smaller furniture items suited to apartment living, such as drop-leaf and side tables. Artwork from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries graces the walls, with a focus on old pictures of old New York. And the city inspires the store’s only new items—exclusive glass paperweights containing vintage postcard images of the Big Apple. — Julie Mehta
