What Is a Canvas Floating Frame?
A canvas floating frame is designed specifically for stretched canvases. The artwork sits inside the outer frame without its edges being covered.
A carefully proportioned shadow gap remains visible around the canvas, creating the illusion that the artwork is floating inside the frame.

Read Our StoryCanvas Floating Frame FAQs
These are some of the questions customers ask most often when choosing a bespoke floating frame.
What is a canvas floating frame?
A canvas floating frame surrounds a stretched canvas while leaving a small shadow gap between the artwork and the outer frame. This creates the appearance that the canvas is floating inside the frame.
How do I measure my canvas for a floating frame?
Measure the outside width, height and depth of the stretched canvas itself. Do not measure an existing outer frame. Our Measuring Guide explains each step clearly.
Are your canvas floating frames made from real wood?
Yes. Our floating frames are made from carefully selected real wood mouldings. The product description explains the finish and profile available for each option.
Can I order a bespoke canvas floating frame size?
Yes. Every frame is individually made to order using the canvas measurements entered online, subject to the manufacturing limits shown for the selected frame.
How long will my order take?
Most frames spend approximately two to three working days in production. Please normally allow around five working days from ordering to delivery, subject to current demand.
Do you deliver to Scotland and Northern Ireland?
Yes. Free tracked UK delivery includes England, Scotland, Wales, the Highlands and Islands of Scotland and Northern Ireland.
