Gray Picture Frame

Gray Picture Frame Details

V260 is a gray or taupe wood picture frame featuring Gray veneer wood profile with an open grain texture. 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 Gray Picture 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.

Gray Picture Frame has a 3/4 inch overall moulding height, establishing the side silhouette created by Gray veneer wood profile with an open grain texture. Its 9/16 inch usable rabbet and approximately 5/16 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

Gray Picture Frame can complement black-and-white photography, architectural prints, abstract art, documents, and neutral interiors. The restrained profile of Gray Picture 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 Gray Picture Frame, especially when a dark frame should remain distinct from the darkest image values.

Design and Visual Character

Color combinations that feature cool grays are perhaps a better match than warm grays.

The visible variation across Gray Picture 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 Gray Picture Frame. Its front view remains restrained, while this moulding's outside contour becomes more apparent from an angled view.
