Simple Box Art-Ready Frame – Black
Our Simple Art-Ready Frames are the most straightforward way to frame a print, photograph or work on paper. The artwork sits directly behind the glass, with no mat or border between the artwork and the frame.
This creates a clean, uncomplicated finish that lets the artwork fill the frame. It works especially well for contemporary prints, photography and artworks where you want the image itself to take centre stage.
Our Box frame shape is a high, slim profile, perfect for a contemporary look.
Our Black colour is a coated wood with a smooth finish.
Available in a range of sizes from A5–A1 and in small-to-large-square.
Also available in our Skinny and Classic frame shapes.
Also available in White, Raw, Tobacco and Charcoal.
All endemicworld Art-Ready Frames are handmade with care by professional framers in our Auckland studio, crafted from real wood, and finished with white acid-free foam-core backing and your choice of Standard or Artglass and made for your own prints, photographs and artworks. Perfect for your next DIY framing project — simply add your art and hang.
Suitable for both Horizontal/Landscape and Vertical/Portrait use.
Free hanging kit included.
