Can you carry a picture frame in your hand luggage?
A picture frame may be carried in hand luggage, even if it is a glass picture frame.

Can you bring glass picture frames on a plane?
However, in terms of picture frames, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), which sets the rules on what can and cannot go on a plane, is far more lenient. The TSA states that glass picture frames are allowed in both carry-on baggage and in checked baggage, but notes that “the final decision rests with the TSA officer.”
How do I pack my picture frames for travel?

Can you bring a glass vase on a plane?
Glass vases can be carried in your carry on or even packed in a separate box or container, provided your airline will allow this in addition to your carry on bag. The most likely thing you may want to bring in your carry on in a glass vial is medication. These are generally quite small so are probably within the TSA liquids rule size of 3.oz/100ml.
