    Equiframed curves are planar centrally symmetric closed convex curves which are touched at each of their points by some circumscribed parallelogram of smallest area. Radon curves form a proper subclass of equiframed curves. The authors give a construction of an arbitrary equiframed curve by modifying a Radon curve appropriately. They also show a kind of duality between the two types of curves.
