The frame's interior ledge aligns with the panel cradle, the face sits slightly forward of the artwork to prevent scuffing, and the back features countersunk holes so mounting screws remain flush. Every necessary mounting component is supplied, so you can frame and hang a 12 x 12 piece quickly and neatly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the thin 1.5\" profile protect the edges of my artwork?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Thin 1.5\" profile extends the frame face slightly beyond the art surface so the panel edge does not contact wall bumping or shelf surfaces. This small offset creates a visual gap while sheltering the frontal face from direct contact. It offers protection without adding visual bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFace overhang keeps artwork surface recessed and shielded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrecise rabbet depth matches 1.5\" cradled panel thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNegative space between frame and art improves airflow and edge visibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this frame work with my Ampersand cradled panel or stretched canvas?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the Thin 1.5\" model is made to fit Ampersand panels with a 1.5\" cradle and is also compatible with stretched canvas of similar depth. For panels lacking cradles, the 7\/8\" depth version includes riser blocks; but the 1.5\" frame here is ideal when your panel already has the deeper cradle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt to match Ampersand 1.5\" cradled panel dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with stretched canvas of equivalent depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot intended as a flush-mount for ultra-thin panels without risers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat hardware and installation features are included to make hanging easier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmpersand supplies a complete hardware pack so you don’t need extra parts: screws sized for secure attachment, eye screws and coated hanging wire, bumper pads for back corner protection, and a hook and nail for immediate wall hanging. The frame back has countersunk holes so attaching screws sit below the surface and won’t scratch the wall or catch when hanging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncluded screws, eye screws, coated wire and hardware for one-piece mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCountersunk back holes prevent protrusion and wall damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBumper pads keep the frame steady and protect both wall and artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Thin style differ from Ampersand’s Bold floater frames?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Thin style favours a narrow, elegant facing that emphasizes the negative space around the artwork, while the Bold style offers a wider facing and a more substantial visual border. For artists wanting a refined, contemporary edge, the Thin profile keeps attention on the piece without a heavy surround.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThin = slim facing, subtle visual border, contemporary look\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBold = wider facing for a stronger frame presence\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBoth styles come in Black, White, Maple, and Walnut for consistent collections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for: The Ampersand Float Frame Thin 1.5In 12x12 White is aimed at artists and galleries framing 12 x 12 cradled panels or matching-depth canvases who want a minimal, protective display solution.
