We refer to a deeper than usual frame for three dimensional objects as a “Shadowbox Frame.” Since they are custom, they can be made in any size. Whispering Woods Gallery has dozens of choices to fit any need. We have wood tones, black, white, silver, gold and more. Some are simple contemporary styles and some are more traditional and ornate. We even have a local Pennsylvania vendor that will make a custom moulding to your specifications. You can pick the type of wood, finish and the profile will be built to your specifications.
Over the years we have framed so many different types of objects in shadowboxes. Some examples include military medals, burial and Capital flags, baby items, graduation tassels, and vacation mementos. We frame items from nature like coral, seashells, starfish, sand dollars, bark, leaves and special stones. We frame precious pet items, arrowheads, tiles, and jewelry.
Custom framing items in a shadowbox helps protect and preserve your special item while letting you enjoy them. A good framer will discuss how your item will be secured. The goal in custom framing is to “Do no harm,” so a reversible method of attaching is preferred. Every project is unique and we have may methods of securing objects. Do you have an idea of something meaningful to frame? Give us a call at 215-364-4321 and we would be happy to help.
