Framing an object
Framing an object Often times people have objects that they would wish to display mounted on the wall as a piece of art. By framing an item in a deep frame, creating a shadow box, a three dimensional piece can be hung on the wall as if it were a picture or painting. Framing an…
Floating Multiple Pieces in a Frame
Floating Multiple Pieces in a Frame Framing more than one piece in a frame is a popular way of presenting smaller art. This works best for a series or pieces that are related to each other. But window matting, when the mat cusps over the edges of the art, doesn’t always suit the art to…
Framing with shadowboxes
Framing with shadowboxes Not all framing methods need to use the window mat effect, or when the mat opening frames a piece within the frame. When framing an object or something that has mass and texture, depth is needed to support the piece and keep it away from the surface of the glass. This is…
Mini Shirt Dress
Mini Shirt Dress One of our clients brought in this adorable and delicate indian influenced dress. We decided to pursue a clean and modern look using a super white hand finished frame. The dress was also slightly stuffed to add dimension.
Add depth to any frame
Add depth to any frame With the wide variety of commercial frame profiles we offer it is easy find the perfect frame design for any piece. But sometimes the frame is not deep enough to create the unique effect the client is looking for. This client brought a slender and simple print to be framed,…
Custom Framing – Lego Portrait
Custom Framing – Lego Portrait For a recent custom framing project here at Paris Frameworks, we framed a lego portrait of a client’s child. We floated the piece using a matching gray mat underneath, with deep, ¾” spacers to protect the portrait from the glass and create a shadow-box effect. Finally, a black glossy lacquer…
Custom Framing – Custom Spacers
Custom Framing – Custom Spacers In framing, a spacer’s primary function is to separate the artwork from the glazing of its frame in order to avoid buckling of the art and mold, among other things. For a recent custom framing project, Paris Frameworks created custom painted spacers to match the fiery red colors of an…
Object Framing – License Plates
Object Framing – License Plates We recently framed two NY State License plates for a client in a custom shadow box frame. Our client came in with two tattered license plates which had a great amount of sentimental value. First we floated them onto a simpatico blue linen that worked well with the blue tones…
Deep Shadow Box in White
Deep Shadow Box in White Pictured here is a unique wire sculpture portrait in a custom white shadow box in maple wood. This sculpture has dimension so we gave it a deep spacer to accommodate its height. Because of the deep spacer and support strainer in the back, the frame, although small, became 5″ deep…
Eight Artistic Tiles
Eight Artistic Tiles Pictured here is a unique framing job involving eight artistic tiles. We came up with a floater frame design with a ½” panel with the same finish. The tiles were laid out the way the client wanted to see them. We gave them ¾” air space in between and 1″ all around.…
Custom Object Framing
Custom Object Framing We worked with a client who had a special object: a shell encaustic piece. We decided to go with a Tall Flat Slant frame made of maple wood with a white wash finish. Because it is an object, we mounted it to a wood panel and attached it with aluminum “L” hooks patinated to…
Receipts
Receipts Recently our client came into the shop with a piece bought at Frieze Art Fair entitled, “Receipts,” which featured different receipts from around the world. This piece has a bold contemporary feel, and we wanted the framing to have the same feeling. We designed a tall cap frame with a white face and white…
