Framed Canvas Prints

Framed canvas prints are now available to order in four different finishes.

Enhance your canvas art with our floating frames, commonly called tray frames. These frames are made to order for our stretched canvas. They feature a discreet 5mm shadow gap surrounding your artwork, which creates a remarkable effect that appears to elevate the piece from the wall.

Available in stylish painted matt black, white, or natural wenge and oak veneer with a 33 / 36mm deep frame. When you start your order, select Floater Frame + Stretched Canvas.

Additionally, we have now introduced a 22mm stretched canvas option for customers who require a thinner depth. All our canvas products can now be ordered at any size - cut to the mm from 8x10” to 36x48”.

For more information, visit the Framed / Stretched Canvas product page.

Print and mount order issues solved

We've squashed a few bugs when ordering our print and mount products:

Previously, you could order a sub-frame for sizes below 390 x 390mm. However, the image must be at least 390 x 390mm due to the 100mm subframe - so this option has been removed for those smaller sizes.

There were some larger sizes on some substrates that could not be ordered, this has now been fixed.

We have now removed the option to order battens for prints larger than 60 x 40 inches as we recommend an aluminium sub-frame for added strength.

Here's a reminder of the mount types we offer:

  • Museum board
  • Aluminium
  • Dibond
  • Foamex
  • Block
  • Plywood
