Frames

Most of our canvases offer a convenient self-assembly inner frame option, a technique commonly known as "canvas stretching" used in art galleries worldwide. This process is incredibly user-friendly and includes step-by-step instructions – simply assemble the frame, stretch the canvas over it, and secure it in place using the provided adhesive. You can also refer to our frame assembly video below for a visual guide.

Opting for our renowned custom DIY frames, instead of pre-framed shipping, not only ensures ease but also saves you substantial shipping expenses. These tailor-made inner frames bring depth and dimension to your canvas, enhancing its visual appeal.

Every canvas ordered with a frame enjoys a 1.2-inch (3cm) "mirror edge" border, mirroring the inner 1.2-inch (3cm), ensuring that even when viewed from the side, the sides maintain an impressive appearance.

Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our choice of wood, sourced from renewable, FSC-certified sustainable forests, with all frames kiln-dried for enhanced durability.

For those seeking frames for our larger canvas sizes that may not have a "with frame" option available, please contact our team at info@cityartyork.com for a customized quote. Should you wish to receive your canvas pre-framed, please reach out to our support team for a quote; however, we strongly recommend considering the associated substantial shipping costs.

Happy shopping!
