Floater Frames

We started making these frames in response to requests for an elegant and affordable framing option. These work beautifully!
Just drop canvas into the the frame, secure in back with the included brackets and screws, and hang!  Your art will "float" in the frame.

We have two kinds of black floater frames.  The 1.5” and 2.5” deep ones have one kind of finish, and the 1.25” and the 2” deep ones, another.  The former is slightly more glossy; the wood grain is visible under the paint.  The latter has an eggshell finish; you can’t see the wood grain under the paint.

We have four kinds of natural wood frames.  They are not stained or finished in any way, just lightly sanded.

The Doug Fir is reddish in color, typically grainy, and the warmest, most rustic wood we carry. It's also the most variable in appearance from stick to stick. The Maple is the lightest and most muted of our woods. It's less grainy than the Doug Fir and also more consistent in appearance from stick to stick. The Maple is a harder wood. The White Oak is a darker than the Maple; the Walnut is darker still. Neither is grainy. Both are quite consistent in appearance from stick to stick.The Walnut and White Oak look especially good when oiled.
