Diploma Frame 11x22 Black with Tassel Holder and Navy over Gold Mat

In this review the GraduationMall 11x22 black diploma frame is assessed for graduates and families seeking a polished, affordable display for an 8.5x11 certificate and a 5x7 photo. The bottom line: this frame is for anyone who wants a finished, professional look without custom framing costs, thanks to its real glass, navy over gold mats and a built-in tassel holder that keeps a graduation display complete and tidy.

Key Features

• Real glass and durable finish: The real glass front combined with a recycled polystyrene frame with a black wood grain finish gives a more professional appearance than simple plastic displays.
• Fits standard diploma and photo sizes: The diploma opening and photo opening are sized to accept an 8.5x11 certificate and a 5x7 picture for a cohesive two-item display.
• Tassel holder included: A dedicated tassel opening and base keep a 9 in tassel neatly displayed and prevent the tassel from drooping against the document or photo.
• Moisture-proof backing: The MDF backboard is moisture resistant and includes hanging hardware so the frame can be mounted securely on a wall or leaned in an office.
• Replacement acrylic front: The package includes an acrylic replacement front in addition to the real glass, offering a lighter option for transport or safer placement in high-traffic areas.

Who It's For

The frame is best for recent graduates, families and schools that want to present diplomas and a commemorative photo with a traditional, elegant look without spending on a custom framer. It suits dorm rooms, home offices and workplace walls where a tidy presentation matters.

Those who need large or unusual certificate sizes, modern frameless styling, or a hardwood frame material should look elsewhere; the frame is made from high quality recycled polystyrene rather than solid wood and is built around standard 8.5x11 diplomas and 5x7 photos.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Looks expensive because of the real glass and navy over gold mat that add depth and contrast to the certificate.
• Complete display solution with a tassel holder and photo opening, eliminating the need to source separate accessories.
• Includes both real glass and an acrylic replacement front for flexibility in handling and placement.

Cons

• Some users may find the hanging hardware or stability variable; a few reports note the frame needs attention to stay secure on certain walls.
