Stretched Canvas & Frame Sets are an economic and easy solution for framing works on canvas.
The canvases are supplied complete with an elegant made-to-measure frame, easily removable for painting.

The canvases are 18mm deep, hand stretched up in our own heavyweight 12oz Acrylic Primed Cotton Duck, suitable for oil or acrylic paints. We use non-warping laminated wood stretcher bars.
The tray frame is 37mm deep and we give the canvas a 5mm shadow gap all around. The face of the frame is 12mm wide, and the obeche wood is ready to be painted, stained or waxed.
Frames are fixed to the rear of the canvas with pre-drilled holes and are easy to unfit.

Please allow up to ten working days for manufacture.

Museo aluminium stretcher bars stretchers are a museum grade aluminium wood composite bar 25mm deep. The wooden edge strip is made of laminated pine and allows easy stapling at the back of the canvas. These stretchers have a 7mm lip to raise the canvas away from the bars. The aluminium body gives excellent stability, making these bars completely resistant to warping. The strength of the aluminium also means that fewer cross-bars are needed to support the stretcher frame. The stretcher frame can be re-tensioned using an Allen key. Aluminium Stretcher Bars are supplied complete with corner fittings.

Please note that the price of the bar includes all the fittings.
