/\ Yes! Quite right - affordable and easy to find!

guis - these frames also are very popular in tabletop versions - with the easel backing - for smaller prints - I also have used them to display diplomas (this has been a very popular with many of my clients). The effect is one of the 'floating' artwork.

Does it also come with sheets that cover the artwork on top..
Or it's just for framing ?

It sounds super convenient
and the black is very clean ^^

/\ Yes! Quite correct - both the poster wall hanging sizes and the tabletop 'easel' style are two pieces of plexi-glass (artwork placed between them) that are held in place by the four pieces of fitted black framing.

I hope you will find them workable for you!

i'm planning on just getting the frame w/out the back possibly some kind of valour or velvet-like material to staple onto the frame or just leave it bare in place of a canvas and hang my venetian masks...


i will take a picture of the finish product and share with you all.
(perhaps, remind me from time to time. i tend to forget with my busy life and all)

^ if you go to an art supplies store
they usually have individual wooden panels in various sizes ... it's used for screen printing / stencils
you can lock them together to fit your own pictures

it's hard to cut perfectly and cleanly
and it creases easily.. well this one polystyrene sheets i had with gloss paper laminated to front and back
