White Maple Custom Picture Frames
For Sandra Cordero "Vagabundus Dreams"
Courtesy of Thomas Nickles Project
To create these white maple picture frames for artworks on paper in New York, we wanted to create something beautifully custom or Sandra Cordero's artwork. The three dimensional paper and sculptural artworks are a range of depths and materials, and these white maple shadowbox frames gives the series a continuity and space to experience each one.
It was such a pleasure to partner with Lower East Side Gallery Thomas Nickles Project to create custom framing designs uniquely made for each of Sandra Cordero's artworks. These pieces where included in the Art On Paper exhibition at Pier 36 in New York, Sept 9th-12th 2021.
Custom mat windows for artworks in Wynwood
When deciding whether to mat or float your artwork, we have designers ready to provide recommendations for your artwork. With locations in Lower East Side New York City, Wynwood Miami, and New Haven Connecticut there are many customization options available to make your framing design exactly tailored to your needs.
Custom framing for art in Wynwood with shadowbox frames
We make many different kinds of frames including frame with custom matting and shadowbox frames for three dimensional artworks as seen above. We can customize the mat background for the artwork to be adhered to so that it perfectly complements the tones of your artwork.
Framing sculptures is an art form in itself to provide secure hanging hardware and a beautiful framing finish for these kinds of artworks. See below an example of how an embroidered textile and paper artwork was floated inside a shadowbox frame.
Custom embroidered textile / paper artwork in shadowbox frame
Above we have a unique example of a maple frame with gilded face and a plexiglass matboard with gilded lip, instead of a traditional mat. This was custom designed to highlight the collage, metallic and mirroring qualities of the artwork. Any of our plexiglass samples can be custom color matched to your preferences.
Custom maple frame with corner splines for floated artwork
These handprinted maple frames with corner splines show the craftsmanship of the frame and highlight hand made qualities in the artwork and frame design working harmoniously together. For floating artwork, the art is hinged to archival mat board underneath. Our clients can determine the 'float space' which is how much visible mat board that will be showing around the border of the artwork. Our designers are available to provide recommendations and suggest framing options that will work for your unique piece.

From Hermes scarves to hand made rugs, our professional team of fitters knows how to work with fabric. How does one properly and safely frame such delicate pieces of material? Well, by using non-invasive techniques and a whole lot of care, we get the job done efficiently and will exceed expectations.
Everyday we get to work with fantastic artists, businesses and individuals. Each artwork is different from the last and should be treated as a unique, highly valued work. When Stephanie Housley reached out to us about preservation mounting for her gorgeous natural scenes, we knew she made the right choice. Our standards for picture framing textiles in New York are some of the highest in the area.
Using our EZ-Attach tool, we safely adhered the artwork on linen to acid-free backing. A PH neutral board is of the utmost importance when framing for conservation. When discussing options for the picture frame, we explored a number of contemporary, chic ideas. Ultimately, we chose a ¾” face walnut frame with a sleek oil & wax finish. The rich, natural tones and textures of the walnut complemented the bright yet organic colors in Housley’s stitched fabrics.

Our team received an original work by Arnoldo Roche Rabell this past fall, and with excitement, we got right to work. Float mounted on acid free, warm white museum board, we housed the painting in a walnut frame with rounded corners. Our Lower East Side studio services local, national, and international galleries, museums, and artists, as well as art collectors and buyers. Our small, skilled team of fitters and designers are ready for any project, no matter how big or small! Picture frames and mouldings are on display in our New York showroom, and trust us, we have a wide variety of options! From hardwood floater frames to acrylic picture frames, we provide some of the best framing options in the city.
Born in 1955 in Puerto Rico’s capital city, San Juan, Arnoldo Roche Rabell’s work deals with issues of national identity, political unrest, and the history of painting. A notable painter of his generation, Roche has been called one of the “most important artists of the neo-expressionist movement”. His work continues to influence painters to this day, and is beloved by our custom picture framing team.
Prior to studying architecture in Puerto Rico, Roche studied under a mentor at Luchetti School of Art. He eventually went on to complete his masters in Fine Art at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1984. His work resides in private collections both nationally and internationally, along with being shown in museums across the country, most notably the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and Museum of Contemporary Art in San Juan.
Rich in color, Roche’s paintings are expressive with multiple layers of paint. He often uses live models and goes over his works with black paint and a palette knife, creating intense forms and rough textures.
Picture Framing in New York City
We received the painting, measuring exactly 26 ⅛” x 40”, with loads of excitement. Every day at Frames and Stretchers LES is an exciting one, no matter what works come into our shop. Whether we receive something by an artist as renowned as Roche, or a piece by a young, small-scale artist around the corner, our tight knit team is thrilled to support and perfect projects for everyone.
Upon reviewing this specific work in our showroom during the client’s consultation, we decided to move forward with a float mount onto acid free museum board. Sure to give the work enough breathing space, we left 1” whitespace all around the image. A warm white mat board complemented the orange and red hues perfectly.
For our favorite step of the process, the frame-fitting of course, we decided on a round walnut closed corner frame with an ebony stain to match the darker brown tones. Closed corner frames are best when considering the preservation of artworks, especially heavily textured pieces such as this one. Closed corner frames often take much longer to make and are much stronger than joined corners, due to the nature of the wood. The painting’s subject stares out through the highest quality UV filtered museum acrylic.

Established in 2006, this year’s Borimix: Puerto Rico Fest will be celebrating San Juan’s 500 year anniversary as the capital city. The visual arts portion of the festival, titled Stone Yucayeque, aspires to reflect on how San Juan was erected on the islet, as well as “the evolution of its iconicity throughout these past 5 centuries of representations, while also seeking to honor the indigenous (naborias) and the stolen Africans, the ‘entrusted’ and the enslaved, anonymous laborers, all responsible for carrying out the construction of a new city or stone yucayeque.”
You can show your support for small businesses, Puerto Rican artists and The Clemente Soto Velez Cultural and Educational Center by attending our welcome event on Friday November 12 at 7 pm for an evening featuring Frames and Stretchers’ very own Miguel Trelles.
There will be an annual ceremony and performances from Willy Rodriguez’ Exploraciones Ponceñas’ and William Parker’s Southern Satellite, presented by Arts for Art. Please RSVP. Proof of vaccination is required upon entry.
Our custom picture frame shop has so enjoyed calling the Clemente Center home for the last 6 years, and Trelles, a founding partner, has played an integral role in multiple aspects of the center for 28 years.
