Framing methods

Find the right method for your work

Each method suits a different kind of artwork. Here is how they differ, what they are best for, and why you might choose one.

Traditional
01

Traditional

A classic mount-and-moulding frame — the print sits behind glass with a mountboard border. The most versatile method, at home with any subject.

Best for: Prints, photographs, posters and open editions of every style.

Why choose it: The most adaptable, budget-friendly choice, with mouldings for every price point.

Elevated Float
02

Elevated Float

The artwork is raised on a concealed platform so it stands proud of the mountboard, with a soft shadow gap between the paper and the moulding.

Best for: Bold contemporary prints and photography you want to feel modern.

Why choose it: A striking, gallery-modern presentation that adds dimension without a mount border.

Order Now →
Tray
03

Tray

An open frame with no glass, where the mounted piece sits gently recessed below the front lip of the moulding for a pared-back finish.

Best for: Stretched canvases and panel works with finished edges.

Why choose it: Clean, minimalist framing that lets the surface of the work breathe.

Order Now →
Box
04

Box

A deeper frame that holds a distinct space between the glass and the artwork, giving the piece room and casting a subtle internal shadow.

Best for: Objects, textiles, medals and layered pieces that need physical depth.

Why choose it: Adds depth, shadow and real presence for a contemporary feel.

Float
05

Float

The sheet floats on top of a mountboard inside a spacer-built box, so the whole work — including its edge — sits behind glass with a gap all round.

Best for: Deckled, handmade or historic papers: parchment, Japanese and rare papers, documents.

Why choose it: Protects and shows the original untrimmed edge exactly as it is.
