FRAME ONLY · FOR EXISTING STRETCHED CANVAS

Elevate Your Canvas Prints with Floating Frames

Create a premium gallery-style finish for your canvas prints and existing stretched canvas artwork with a floating frame designed to add depth, structure and a refined presentation.

Our floating frames for canvas are made for customers who already own stretched canvas artwork and want to enhance the display without replacing the original artwork.

Why Choose a Floating Frame for Canvas?

A floating frame does more than simply surround your artwork. It creates separation between the canvas and outer frame, adding depth and a professional finishing touch.

Keep Your Artwork as the Focus

Unlike traditional frames that may overlap the artwork edge, floating frames allow the complete front surface of the canvas to remain visible.

Create a Gallery Style Finish

The clean profile and floating effect create a modern presentation commonly seen in galleries, exhibitions and premium interiors.

Add Depth and Dimension

The visible space between the canvas and frame creates natural shadow lines and helps artwork stand out from the wall.

Create a Gallery-Inspired Look at Home

Floating frames help transform everyday canvas artwork into a more intentional wall display. The right frame can enhance the appearance of artwork in living rooms, bedrooms, offices and creative spaces.

Family Photography

Family portraits, wedding photos and meaningful memories become more refined when displayed with a floating frame around the canvas.

Travel & Landscape Artwork

Large landscape images benefit from the extra depth created by a floating frame, helping the artwork become a stronger feature on the wall.

Abstract Artwork

Modern abstract artwork works beautifully with floating frames because the clean border keeps attention on colours, textures and composition.

Paintings & Textured Canvas

Floating frames provide a sophisticated finishing layer while allowing brushwork, texture and canvas details to remain fully visible.

A Modern Framing Solution for Different Canvas Styles

From minimalist photography to colourful artwork, floating frames provide a versatile way to present different canvas styles while maintaining a clean and contemporary appearance.

The frame should support the artwork rather than compete with it. Choosing the right material, profile and finish allows your canvas to feel naturally connected with your interior space.

Explore Floating Frame Materials

Floating frames are available in different materials, allowing you to choose the right balance of appearance, durability and style for your canvas artwork. Each material creates a different visual character around your stretched canvas.

Polymer Floating Frames

Polymer floating frames are a practical and stylish option for customers looking for a clean floating profile with versatile design choices.

With a contemporary appearance and a range of finishes available, polymer floating frames work well with photography, artwork collections and everyday wall décor.

Real Wood Floating Frames

Real wood floating frames provide the natural warmth and character of genuine timber. The grain and texture of real wood create a premium appearance around canvas artwork.

They are ideal for customers who prefer authentic materials and want their frame to add a natural design element to their interior.

Aluminium Floating Frames

Aluminium floating frames create a sleek and modern presentation with clean lines and a refined profile.

They are especially suitable for contemporary interiors, photography and artwork where a minimalist appearance is preferred.

What Creates the Floating Gap Effect?

The defining feature of a floating frame is the visible space between the stretched canvas and the surrounding frame. This creates the appearance that the artwork is gently floating inside the frame.

Unlike traditional canvas frames that directly touch or overlap the artwork edge, floating frames keep the canvas surface fully visible while adding a separate outer border.

This subtle separation creates depth, natural shadow lines and a more professional gallery-style presentation for your artwork.

Floating Frames for Stretched Canvas

Floating frames for stretched canvas are designed specifically around finished canvas artwork mounted on a stretcher frame. Unlike traditional frames, they allow the full canvas surface and edges to remain visible while creating a clean separation between the artwork and outer frame.

This makes a floating frame an ideal choice for canvas prints, paintings, photography and handmade artwork where the texture, depth and details of the canvas are an important part of the final presentation.

Whether you are displaying a favourite family photo, a large landscape canvas or a statement artwork, a floating frame creates a professional gallery-inspired finish while keeping the artwork as the main focus.

How to Choose the Right Floating Frame

Choosing the right floating frame depends on more than just artwork size. Consider your canvas dimensions, depth, preferred material and interior style.

1. Measure Your Canvas Size

Floating frames are made around your existing stretched canvas. Measure the actual outside width and height of your canvas rather than the final frame size.

2. Check Canvas Depth

Canvas thickness can vary depending on the stretcher frame used. Measuring the depth helps ensure the floating frame fits correctly.

3. Select Your Material

Choose polymer, real wood or aluminium depending on the style and appearance you want around your artwork.

4. Match Your Interior

Consider your wall colour, furniture style and artwork tones when selecting the overall frame appearance.

How to Measure Your Existing Canvas

For the best fit, always measure the stretched canvas you already own before ordering a floating frame.

Width

Measure from the outside edge of the canvas stretcher frame to the opposite outside edge.

Height

Measure the complete outside height of the stretched canvas, including the stretcher frame.

Depth

Measure from the front surface of the canvas to the back of the stretcher frame.

If your canvas has an unusual size, a custom floating frame option may provide a better solution than selecting a standard size.

Need a Custom Floating Frame for Your Canvas?

Not every artwork fits a standard size. A custom floating frame is an ideal solution for unique artwork, handmade paintings, oversized canvases or stretched canvases with unusual dimensions.

Simply provide the actual measurements of your existing stretched canvas, including width, height and depth, and we can help you find a suitable floating frame solution.

Request Custom Size Floating Frame

Standard Size or Custom Size Floating Frame?

The best option depends on the dimensions of your existing stretched canvas. Popular canvas sizes can often be matched with standard floating frame options, while unique artwork sizes may require a custom solution.

Popular Canvas Sizes

If your stretched canvas matches a commonly requested size, a size-specific floating frame can provide a simple and convenient framing solution.
