Simple Frame Designs for Art Prints
We loved framing these two art prints. Both have a fairly simple frame design. For the graphic print we chose to float the paper off the mat so it creates depth and some shadow. The colorful @jocelynhobbie print looks amazing in our off white frame design with a thick 8 ply mat which also creates […]
Shadowbox Frame for Lobotomy Kit
We built a shadowbox for this lobotomy kit and used a painted hardwood frame with matching wood spacers, linen covered mat and a museum quality acrylic to keep it clean and sterile. We are getting real close to the Holiday Season! Come in now with your wall frame projects you would want to be ready […]
Deep Shadowbox Painting for Original Abstract Painting
We built a deep custom shadowbox for this beautiful original abstract. The grey wash ash flood frame allows the texture and color in the art to really stand out. We floated the art for light and shadow play. Underglass Custom Framing in San Francisco is open daily. We design and build custom solutions for your […]

All About San Francisco
We love our City so much and had these two amazing San Francisco themed prints to frame. The map is from the official guide book for the 1939 World’s Fair in San Francisco. We were celebrating the new Bay Bridge and Golden Gate Bridge among other things. A natural wood frame with a mint green […]
Framing and Floating Art on Mats
We always try to work with the whole piece of art and that includes the actual paper or medium. For the colorful flower vase painting from @creativegrowth the frame appears to be just a clean gallery cap, but when you see it at an angle you see that beautiful warm wood tone on the side […]
When the pattern of the frame plays on the art…
Love how this frame plays with the pattern in this commissioned print from @shop.pixelandink! This piece makes me smile because it reminds me of a Doris Day song my grandma use to always sing to me “I love you a bushel and a peck, bet yer purdy neck I do…”
Simple elegance in art and frame
We love the sense of calm that this photo brings. We kept with simple elegance using a thin whitewash frame straight to the edge; no distractions. Underglass Custom Picture Framing is one of San Francisco’s oldest framing business. We started out on Townsend in the 80s, moved to Church Street in the early 90s, opened […]
Framing with an edge
We really love imperfections! These last custom frame projects let us be creative in showing off the edges of these art pieces! They look incredibly beautiful! Come by our custom frame shops here in San Francisco and see our large selection of custom frame samples, matting options and meet our incredibly knowledgable custom framers who […]
Slim maple frame for a beautiful photo print
Slim Aarons had an iconic point of view and style as he captured a golden age of wealth, privilege, beauty and leisure. We used a maple frame with a greywash to play on the warmth in the print while maintaining a clean line for our amazing friends at Anyon Interior Design in San Francisco. This […]
