Designing Shadow Box Frames
Technically, any type of frame offering space between the art and the glass could be considered a shadow box frame. However, shadow box frames are typically at least 1 inch deep, and can be as deep as they need to be to accommodate your item. While most shadow box frames are created with opaque side walls that are part of the frame, we also offer acrylic boxes with clear side walls that allow viewers to see all sides of the item except the rear. For the rear wall of the shadow box, you can choose any color of board or mat. We often recommend using handwrapped fabric mats in linen, silk, suede, velvet, or another textured fabric as the backing in shadow boxes. Of course, you can also choose the color and style of frame for your shadow box.
