Our "floating" frames are milled from select furniture grade hardwoods. The profile of the floating frame is designed to impart a thin accent to artwork that separates the work from the background. These frames are particularly suited for medium to large artwork on canvas or linen mounted on standard 1 1/2" stretcher bars. The basic frame is made from Western Maple, milled to profile and finished in a hand-rubbed hard wax oil, that provides a durable satin finish with a hard wax protection from dust, bumps and stains. On request, frames can be milled from any furniture grade specialty woods such as Walnut, Fir, Cherry, White Oak, etc., stained & finished in accordance with customer requirements, at a nominal additional cost.
