"For over 50 years, the House of Heydenryk has been my favorite framer. Whether for my White House portraits, exhibition or personal paintings, they have provided me with fine craftsmanship coupled with suggestions for framing my pictures with individuality and taste. Heydenryk is simply . . . the best!"

"I've had the privilege to work with the House of Heydenryk for over 25 years. The staff is creative, helpful, accommodating and most important of all, experienced. The House of Heydenryk's varied collection of fine, hand carved frames is perfect for the discriminating collector. Paintings by the Renaissance, Impressionist, Modern, American, Latin American and Contemporary masters have been framed with a sensibility that is the envy of fine art framers worldwide."

"My first experience of working with Henry Heydenryk was in 1955 when my first solo show of paintings was exhibited at The Hammer Gallery in New York. But it is not of the superb craftsmanship of Heydenryk's work that I wish to speak of here. It is to capture the quality of the genius of his imagination. His spirit projected into that of the artist and this extraordinary gift never failed not only framing the artist's intent, but by his design often, as could be said, translating into the work a subtle dimension hard to define.
Today, [the current president] David Mandel brilliantly carries the torch of the House of Heydenryk with loud applause from Henry Heydenryk surrounding him every step of the way . . . I guarantee this is true because I too can hear it."
"In 1973, when I first started out in framing, I met Henry Heydenryk, Jr., who was the recognized world authority on the history of frames. I sought him and his note-worthy team of artisans out to help solve some framing problems for the Smithsonian's National Portraits Gallery. I developed a long and satisfying relationship with not only him, but also with his staff who provided the only comprehensive source of antiques and authentic replicas that could be utilized for the nation's collection of portraits. I am happy to say his knowledge, kindness and generosity of spirit have always been a hallmark for the firm, which fortunately has continued long after his death. Luckily for its customers, the House of Heydenryk continues to strive and provide the same kind of personal service and expert craftsmanship that can be found nowhere else."

The Heydenryk staff has an innate sensitivity to paintings, and thus you can rely on their expertise to pick the perfect frame for your masterpiece. The House of Heydenryk's services are unparalleled in the industry."
"The House of Heydenryk has a great selection of period frames that are very reasonably priced. They are a pleasure to work with!"

David Anthony Easton Inc.
"House of Heydenryk is by default the only fine art framer for me. For 25 years I have relied on their extraordinary inventory of antique and new frames as well as their insight and creativity in working with me and solving all of my clients' and my own framing needs. The second soul of a piece of art is the frame in which it lives. Their sensitivity to finishes and detail are unequalled."

"The House of Heydenryk's letterhead doesn't say it all; "Makers of Fine Frames." They are so much more! Obviously, they make fine frames, but they do so with authority, style and taste. They provide a unique service that is always on the mark!"
"For many years, Mrs. Rockefeller and I depended on the House of Heydenryk for all of our framing. We greatly enjoyed the variety of frames, the expert workmanship and the enhancement of our artwork."
