Key Features

• Includes protection: The frame ships with economy acrylic that protects artwork while saving weight compared with glass.
• Custom fit: Sized to hold 28x40 in photos and posters while the finished frame measures 29.82x41.82 in for an accurate fit.
• Distinct profile: The 1.25 in frame width and 0.75 in depth provide a visible border that complements most prints without overpowering them.
• Practical rabbet depth: A 0.50 in rabbet allows for matting or moderately thick items to sit flush inside the frame.

Who It's For

The frame is best for home decorators, hobby photographers, or students who have a 28x40 in poster or photo and want a reliable, traditional cherry-style frame that arrives assembled with protective acrylic and hanging hardware. It suits anyone who values a clean finished look and a wide 1.25 in border to frame imagery without custom joinery.
