Ampersand redesigned the floater frame to line up with panel cradles, keep artwork set slightly below the frame face, and include all necessary hanging hardware. The Thin profile offers an elegant narrow facing in a refined black finish, made from premium hardwood for a professional gallery appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this frame fit cradled wood panels and stretched canvas?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame’s rabbet and base were expanded to match the cradle of Ampersand panels so the panel sits squarely and evenly. For flat panels without cradles, the included riser blocks for the 7\/8\" depth option raise the panel to the correct position so the floater gap remains consistent. Stretched canvas also fits securely thanks to the frame depth and included hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8\" rabbet depth sized to align with cradled panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiser blocks included for flat panels without cradles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with stretched canvas as well as wood panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThin facing preserves a slim, modern profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat hardware and accessories come in the package?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything needed to hang and protect your piece is provided so you can finish framing without hunting for extra parts.

The Ampersand Floaterframe Thin 16x20 7\/8\" in Black is ideal for professional and hobby artists who use Ampersand cradled panels or stretched canvas and want a low-profile, gallery-style presentation. It suits makers who prefer a refined, narrow frame face, need an easy, complete framing solution with included hardware, and require a frame that protects the artwork edge while producing a consistent floater gap across multiple pieces. If you want a ready-to-hang, solid wood floater that simplifies finishing and exhibits work cleanly, this frame delivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAmpersand Floater Frame made from premium hardwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDeeper rabbet depth designed to perfectly cradle wood panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCan also be used with stretched canvas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable in multiple sizes, depths, colours and thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeaves negative space between artwork \u0026amp; frame — hanging hardware included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does this frame include hanging hardware?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes — eye screws, coated wire, hook, nail, bumper pads, and screws to attach artwork are all included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use this with a flat panel that has no cradle?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes — the 7\/8\" depth package includes riser blocks to raise flat panels to the correct position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Ampersand Art Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55302880690513,"sku":"B01IBX1132","price":115.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1086\/5567\/3681\/files\/ampersand-floaterframe-16x20-thin-black-front.jpg?v=1791984129","url":"https:\/\/craftiche.co.uk\/products\/ampersand-art-supply-floater-frame-16x20-thin-7-8-black-solid-wood-ready-to-hang","provider":"Craftiche","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
