Wide Black Swan-Profile Frame

Wide Black Swan-Profile Frame Details

v659 is a wood picture frame featuring a wide black face shaped by a contemporary swan-back curve. Its 2-1/2 inch face and 1-1/8 inch overall moulding height give the profile its characteristic scale and contour.

The 2-1/2 inch face makes Wide Black Swan-Profile Frame a substantial border around the artwork. At this broader scale, its profile and finish become active parts of the presentation rather than a narrow outline at the perimeter.

Wide Black Swan-Profile Frame has a 1-1/8 inch overall moulding height, establishing the side silhouette created by a wide black face shaped by a contemporary swan-back curve. Its 5/8 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.
