Floater Frame for Gesso Boards| Made to Order| Custom Sizes| Handcrafted| Made for Artists| fits thickness of 3mm, 1/8", 1/4" and more

These are custom floater frames made to order. You can select the size and wood species. If the size you need is not listed, please contact me for a price. In most cases, I can build it to your specifications.

These frames are built so that you can attach artwork that is thin, such as gesso board, tintypes, or any other art form where screws would not be possible. This would typically be art that is 1/4" or smaller. THe most common sizes I see are an 1/8" or its metric equivalent of 3mm.

This frame is built like my typical floater frames; however, a back is installed, and then a pedestal is attached to create a platform for your artwork. The pedestal is custom-made to bring your art forward in the frame while creating the illusion that your art is floating.

If desired, I can attach double-sided tape to the pedestal to hold your artwork at no additional cost. If you would like to use rare Earth magnets embedded into the pedestal, I can provide that at a slightly higher cost. I can also provide a pedestal floater frame with acrylic glass installed. Please reach out if that is an option you would like to consider.

I can make larger frames; however, the cost is much higher for various reasons. The biggest barrier, unfortunately, is high shipping costs if the frame exceeds a certain size. I am more than willing to provide a shipping quote based on your zipcode and my shipping costs.

Handcrafted, these frames will hold your art flush to the front of the frame with a 1/4" gap around the sides, giving it the appearance of "floating" in the frame. All frames are finished with a clear coat of of a hard wax oil finish to highlight the wood's natural color, grain, and figure. The finish is a natural finish that is non-toxic and incredibly durable.

This frame is the perfect addition to any wall and will bring out the beauty of your living space and the artwork it holds. Its unique combination of artistry and woodworking makes it a truly one-of-a-kind item.

**The size options are based on the art's outside dimensions and not the frame's outside dimensions. For example, if your canvas art is 18" x 24", you would choose a frame listed as 18"x 24". This would perfectly hold that size canvas with a 1/4" gap between the inside of the frame and the outside of the canvas.
Each miter joint is reinforced to provide a solid connection and prevent the frame from going out of square.
Additionally, miter keys are added to the joints to provide contrast and further strengthen the miter joint.
I do not use nails or screws in the construction of these frames and instead rely on proven joinery, quality glue, and real hardwood.
