Dark Wood Poster Frame

Dark Wood Poster Frame Details

V838 is a brown wood picture frame featuring Dark distressed plank-style wood profile. Its 1-1/2 inch face and 3/4 inch overall moulding height give the profile its characteristic scale and contour.

The 1-1/2 inch face gives Dark Wood Poster Frame a moderate visual presence. There is enough visible area for its particular profile and finish to register clearly without the breadth of a wide panel or statement frame.

Dark Wood Poster Frame has a 3/4 inch overall moulding height, establishing the side silhouette created by Dark distressed plank-style wood profile. Its 9/16 inch usable rabbet and approximately 1/4 inch lip coverage describe the working space behind the opening. As a standard frame, the lip overlaps the front edge of the artwork or framing package.

Works Visually With

Dark Wood Poster Frame can complement landscapes, maps, wildlife art, outdoor photography, folk art, and casual family photographs. The restrained profile of Dark Wood Poster Frame serves as a clear image boundary, with its exact face width determining whether it reads as a fine outline or a more visible surround.

For works on paper, mat color and border width can create separation between the image and Dark Wood Poster Frame, especially when a dark frame should remain distinct from the darkest image values.

Design and Visual Character

The textured finish of this distressed wood picture frame corresponds to the grain pattern, in what appears to be a sandblasting process to remove softer flesh between wood grain rings.

The visible variation across Dark Wood Poster Frame breaks up reflected light and gives this finish more tonal movement than a uniformly smooth profile.

The 1-1/2 inch face and 3/4 inch overall height define the proportions of Dark Wood Poster Frame. Its front view remains restrained, while this moulding's outside contour becomes more apparent from an angled view.
