Your cart is empty.At Ampersand, we noticed the floater frames available to artists didn't properly accommodate wooden panels. We saw that the base of the frame didn't align with the panel's cradle and the front of the frame didn't protect the face of the artwork. Ampersand remedied these issues by expanding the base of its Floaterframe to match up with the cradle of a wooden panel and extending the frame profile, so the artwork sits just below the front of the frame, protecting the artwork from damage. We also added countersunk holes on the back for the hardware, so the screws that attach the artwork to the frame don't protrude. This keeps your artwork flush with the wall and prevents screws from scratching the wall. Not only did we create a better frame, but we also took it one more step. Everything you need to frame your artwork is included, from the eye screws and coated wire to screws that attach to the artwork, and bumper pads for the back corners. Even the hook and nail are included so you can display your newly framed artwork. Are you framing a flat panel without a cradle? The 7/8" depth option includes a set of riser blocks in the hardware pack. This is a great solution for displaying your artwork on a panel, even if the panel doesn't have cradles. Ampersand offers two great styles of Floaterframes to choose from: We have a Bold style, with a dramatic wide facing, and a Thin style with an elegant, narrow facing. Both styles are available in Black, White, Maple, and Walnut, and are available for 7/8" and 1 1/2" depth artwork on cradled panels or stretched canvas. With the Bold style, the outer dimensions are the same for both depths. This allows artists to frame artworks with different cradle depths in uniform frames. The Thin style has a different approach. The outer profile for the 7/8" depth is more shallow versus the deeper 1 1/2" profile. Designed for Ampersand panels and ideal for use as a canvas frame.

After working hard to paint seascape on a 16x20 inch 1.5 inch gallery wrap my wife decided it would look better framed. I disagreed but as always there is no point arguing with the boss. In checked local hobby/craft stores that carry pre-manufactured frames and also makes custom frames. They were no help at all and had nothing in stock and could not make floater frame. So I spent hours researching Amazon’s somewhat meager selection of 16x20 inch 1.5 inch floater frames. The few I found were over priced and most had very bad reviews. I checked this one and determined the bad reviews were probably not as bad as portrayed. I ordered it and it arrived quickly and in perfect condition. The only negative for me was having to instal the included hanging hardware that required pre-drilling small holes on each side in order to then screw in the eyelets to attach the wire for hanging. So you will need a drill with a very small drill bit for this. This frame looks good with the painting and my wife is now happy. Therefore I can say that this is probably the best choice for this size and type of frame and it has my full recommendation.

I ordered a different frame from amazon first. Corners weren't together and literally fell apart in my hands. I ordered this one and I am so happy with it! I used it for a 16x20" canvas that was 1 1/4" thick. I was so happy I was able to find a quality frame that worked.
