Ampersand includes a full hardware pack — from eye screws and coated wire to bumper pads and a hanging hook — so you can install and hang finished work immediately. The Bold profile offers a wide, contemporary facing in natural maple that complements gallery and home interiors alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this frame fit cradled wood panels?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rabbet is widened and positioned to match the cradle of typical wooden panels, keeping the panel supported and stable without bottoming out or rocking. If you have a flat panel without a cradle, the included riser blocks make up the difference so the piece still sits correctly inside the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8\" internal depth tailored to cradled panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWider base contact to align with panel cradle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiser blocks included for flat panels without cradles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCountersunk screw holes prevent protrusions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the frame protect the edges of my painting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the frame's face extends slightly beyond the front of the panel so the painted surface sits recessed and is less exposed to accidental damage. The Bold profile's wide face also provides a modern visual border while keeping the art safe from knocks and abrasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eArtwork sits just below the frame face for edge protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide Bold facing for a strong visual margin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBumper pads cushion the back corners and prevent surface scuffs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCountersunk hardware keeps screws flush with the back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat comes in the box and how easy is installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmpersand supplies a complete hanging and attachment kit so you don't need extra parts.

The floater frame supports both cradled wood panels and stretched canvas. The 7\/8\" depth works well for many thinner canvases, while Ampersand also offers deeper options if your canvas has thicker stretcher bars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with cradled panels and stretched canvas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable in multiple depths for thicker supports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConsistent outer dimensions on Bold style for mixed-depth displays\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable finishes to match different artwork and interiors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this frame for? The Ampersand Floaterframe Bold 16x20 in maple is ideal for artists, galleries, and collectors who want a ready-to-hang, robust presentation for small-to-medium cradled panels or canvases. It suits makers who prefer a contemporary wide-facing frame that both protects edges and creates a clean visual separation between the artwork and the wall. Because the hardware pack is comprehensive and the rabbet matches panel cradles, it’s also a practical choice for artists packing, shipping, or exhibiting finished work with professional results.\u003c\/p\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 the 7\/8\" frame fit panels without cradles?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes — the 7\/8\" kit includes riser blocks so flat panels sit correctly inside the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Are hanging supplies included with the frame?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes — eye screws, coated wire, bumper pads, a hook and screw for hanging are all included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Ampersand Art Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55302946619729,"sku":"B01IBX4NDC","price":132.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1086\/5567\/3681\/files\/ampersand-floaterframe-bold-maple-front-16x20.jpg?v=1791984577","url":"https:\/\/craftiche.co.uk\/products\/ampersand-art-supply-floaterframe-bold-16x20-maple-7-8-depth-solid-wood-cradled-panel-ready","provider":"Craftiche","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
