About the frame

This dark wooden frame is covered with exclusive smoked oak veneer, with the veneer running unbroken all the way round the frame's profile. This gives an elegant and seamless look, where the natural structure and deep nuances of the wood appear harmonious from every angle.

The 20x20 mm smoked profile has a darker and more refined tone than the deeper 20x30 profile in smoked oak.

The front profile measures 20 mm in width and has an outer depth of 20 mm. The combination gives the frame a harmonious and elegant appearance that works beautifully for modern art, photographs and original vintage posters alike. The front overlaps the glass and backing board by 5 mm, so the artwork is held securely in the frame.

The frame is made to order in our Danish workshop and is available in all our standard sizes. The stated dimensions always refer to the size of the glass and backing board — in other words, the size your artwork must be to fit the frame precisely.

Flexible hangers are fitted on the back, so the frame can easily be hung both vertically and horizontally. This makes it easy to adapt the framing to both the proportions of the artwork and the interior of the room.

Glass

The properties of the glass have a big impact on both the experience of the artwork and the overall look of the framing. That is why we offer four different types of glass, each with its own visual and practical qualities:

Acrylic glass (plexiglass)
A light and shatterproof alternative to standard glass. Suitable for larger formats and places where low weight is an advantage. Once the protective film is removed, the acrylic glass appears clear, with reflections close to those of standard glass.

Standard glass
Classic clear glass with beautiful transparency and natural colour reproduction. The reflections give the framing a lively and traditional look.

Non-reflective glass
Glass with a matte surface that significantly reduces glare. Particularly suitable in bright rooms or near windows, where you want fewer reflections and better visibility of the artwork.

Museum glass
Our most exclusive type of glass. The surface is almost invisible and reduces reflections to a minimum, while the glass protects the artwork with at least 70 % UV filtering. Ideal for original works and particularly valuable posters.

Passepartout

If you choose to add a passepartout, the frame must be larger than your artwork. For a 50×70 cm poster with about 5 cm of passepartout, for example, you need a 60×80 cm frame.

There are several shades to choose from. If you order a format larger than 81×110 cm, however, the passepartout is only supplied in white or off-white.

Inner dimensions

The aperture size should be 1 cm smaller than the actual dimensions of the artwork. If your poster measures 66×88 cm, you should therefore choose an aperture size of 65×87 cm. This gives an overlap of about 5 mm on all sides, so the artwork stays in place and mounting is easy. A reveal border can be added in our frame designer.

Outer dimensions

On the outside, the passepartout always has the same dimensions as the glass. Remember that the front edge of the frame extends approx. 5 mm over the glass, passepartout and backing board.

Number of apertures

You can freely choose the number of apertures between 0 and 5 – feel free to contact us if you need more. The no-aperture option is typically used for artworks that are to lie on top of the board, so the entire paper with signature and edge is visible.

Position of the aperture

There are three positions to choose from:

Centred aperture (standard): The cut-out is centred so that the distance to the top and bottom is the same.

Top-positioned aperture: The same distance to the top and sides, giving a little extra space at the bottom.

Free positioning: Perfect if you have a particular position in mind. You choose the distance from the top and left side, and our preview shows the result at all times.

For a smoked oak wooden frame, we cut the passepartout from 1.5 mm acid-free board of professional quality.
