A framing classic that has stood the test of time, traditional frames have glass or plexiglass to protect the enclosed artwork, photograph, or certificate from dust, particles, and the environment. Add a mat to the frame to give a finished appearance. Traditional picture frames come in a range of styles from casual to formal, making them a great choice for display in galleries and museums, at home, or in other professional settings. Available in wood, metal, or veneer.

When it comes to depth, shadow box frames make space to showcase! Risers installed inside the moulding of the frame raise the glass away from the backing, allowing for more space and depth (a "box") within the frame. The additional depth allows artwork to be framed with a mat, from edge-to-edge or float-mounted. Available in wood.

Floating Canvas

This minimal style of frame, with its off-set or “stepped” moulding, creates a subtle shadow around works on canvas, adding dimension to the artwork and giving it the appearance that it is “floating” within the frame. These frames allow the viewer's attention to rest on the artwork, while giving it a polished, professional look. Available in wood, metal, or veneer.

Choose Your Moulding

Choose the moulding your frame is to be made of, taking into consideration what would suit the artwork. If you are new to framing, our staff can assist and show you the options available. There are frames available for works on paper or canvas as well as shadow frames to add depth to your piece.

Choose Your Moulding
Choose Your Matting

Choosing the right mat for your artwork is important to both the look of the framed piece and to the preservation of your artwork. Mats come in many colours and various thicknesses, from thin for a subtle look, to thick mats which offer added presence and drama. Available in regular, archival or museum quality, your selection will influence how long your paper remains in its ideal form.

Choose Your Matting
Choose Your Glass & Backing

The final components for your framing project are the glass and backing. There are various qualities of glass, each offering its own level of UV protection. Options include regular glass, plexiglass, conservation glass, non-glare, and museum glass.
