Float Frame with Brass, Aluminum or Black Finish Description

Floater frames are a popular way to display artwork on canvas. The canvas seems to 'float' inside of the frame.
Our common metal floaters (Brass and aluminum) are gilded on the tops and backs of the frames. They are rubbed through to a red undercoat and each is antiqued with a light patina. The insides of the frames are black. Our black floater is black on all sides, and the top surface reveals a subtle red undercoat creating a unique and beautiful finish.

How To Measure Your Artwork for Framing

Measure the length and height of the outer edge of your artwork, including mat if there is one.

Measure all four sides to make sure your artwork is square. If your artwork is not square, be sure to order a frame with a rabbet lip wide enough to cover the difference.

Enter your measurement in inches. For instance, if your frame measures 2'2" x 3'4", enter 26" x 40".

If you have any questions or concerns about your measurements, take your artwork to a professional framer to have it measured. Correct measurements are critical to building your frame. We are not responsible for frames which do not fit because the artwork was improperly measured

We will take the measurements provided by you, and cut the moulding's inside corners at the rabbet to these measurements.

We add a standard 1/8" allowance to each measurement for ease of mounting. For instance, if your order specifies 26" x 40", your frame will actually be cut at 26 1/8" x 40 1/8". Take this into consideration when measuring your frame. If you need your frame to be cut to an exact size with no allowance, be sure to indicate this by adding a note to your order.

How Frame Price is Calculated

Frames by Edward Wright pricing combines two charges:

The per foot charge applies to the work done to the entire surface of the frame, such as the finish or a carve along the length.
The corner charge applies to work that does not depend on the size of the frame, such as joining the corners or a carving in the corners only. Every frame has four corners, no matter what its size, so the corner charge for a particular sample is always the same regardless of size.

We add the per foot charge and the corner charge to determine the total cost of your frame, as follows:

(frame feet x per foot price) + corner price

What does frame feet mean? Frame feet is a precise calculation based on the following measurements:

height: provided by you, height of artwork
length: provided by you, height of artwork
moulding width: the thickness of the moulding which will be used to make your frame

The height and length, measured from your artwork, are the inner measurement of the frame. The outer measurement, or total frame feet, is calculated with this equation:

((Height + Length)*2 + MouldWidth*8)/12
