Pixy Canvas Floater Frame 48x60 for 3/4 in Deep Canvas - Black Oak

In this review the Pixy Canvas Floater Frame 48x60 is judged as a practical, affordable way to present a large stretched canvas or print; it is best for artists and homeowners who want the visual lift of a floating edge without custom millwork. The main reason to choose this frame is its precise inner fit sizing and easy installation hardware, which make it simple to turn a 48 by 60 in, 3/4 in deep canvas into a gallery-style piece quickly. The materials and packing also aim to protect the frame in transit and on the wall.

Key Features

• Inner fit sizing: The listed 48 x 60 in size corresponds to the canvas inner dimensions so buyers can match their stretched canvas for a precise fit.
• Material construction: Made from robust polystyrene foam with an acrylic film finish, the frame balances light weight with a polished, wood-like look.
• Profile and reveal: The stairstep floater profile provides about a 1/8 in gap from the canvas and a 7/16 in visible face edge to create the floating effect.
• Hardware included: Pre-drilled holes, two D-ring hangers, wire, socket head and pan head screws are supplied so the frame can be attached and hung without extra purchases.
• Packaging: Five-stage packing with foam, bubble wrap and strong corrugated boxing is designed to reduce transit damage for large frames.

Who It's For

The Pixy Canvas floater frame suits painters, photographers, and DIY decorators who have a 48 x 60 in canvas up to 3/4 in deep and want a gallery-ready presentation without high framing cost. It works particularly well for rental spaces, living rooms, and offices where a lightweight but visually refined frame is preferred.

Those seeking heavy, solid wood or heirloom-grade joinery should look elsewhere, as the frame is polystyrene-based rather than solid timber; similarly, buyers who need deeper canvas accommodation beyond 7/8 in should verify depth before purchase.

Pros & Cons
