CORE ART 11x14 Diploma Frame for 8.5x11 or 11x14 Documents

In this review the CORE ART 11x14 diploma frame is evaluated for anyone who wants a clean, traditional display for diplomas or documents. The bottom line: this frame is best for buyers who need a sturdy wooden frame with the flexibility to show an 8.5x11 diploma with a navy mat or an 11x14 document without it, and who value a high-gloss finish and tempered glass for protection. It is a straightforward, well-made option that balances appearance, durability, and price.

Key Features

• Material: Made from 100% New Zealand white wood, the frame feels solid and holds its shape over time for reliable display.
• Mat flexibility: The included navy mat can be removed to accept full 11x14 documents or used to present an 8.5x11 diploma with a professional border.
• Glass protection: The 1.8mm tempered glass panel protects certificates from dust and glare while remaining thin enough for a clean profile.
• Mounting options: Includes two metal hanging hardware pieces and a 45-degree desktop stand so the frame fits both wall and tabletop display needs.
• Finish: The 1.4 in wide high-gloss craft painted finish in cherry red offers a polished, traditional look that complements formal documents.

Who It's For

The CORE ART 11x14 diploma frame is ideal for recent graduates, professionals framing licenses or certificates, and anyone who wants a durable wood frame with an interchangeable mat for either 8.5x11 or 11x14 presentation. It works well in offices, home studies, or entryways where a formal yet simple display is desired.

Shoppers who need a very large custom frame, decorative molding, or archival acid-free details beyond a basic protective glass should look elsewhere. Also consider other finishes if cherry-red does not match the intended decor.
