I'm a frame snob - I grew up around artists and I typically frame art with real wood and a single-or-double mat and museum glass to protect from fading. However, that's all very expensive, so when it's not an original piece I try to find ways to save some money. These frames are pretty solid and fit the posters perfectly in my experience. I got the black frame to go with an 18x24 Baldur's Gate travel poster from Sylvan Design - the poster fit exactly so the white border of the print is exposed straight & evenly all along the sides, which mimics the effect of a mat and looks great on the wall. The hook on the back was not perfectly straight nor perfectly centered so hanging it was a little bit of a challenge, but I do have it hanging, it is now hanging straight and I didn't have to do much to get it there. They feel a little pricy at $50 each, so that and the hook on the back takes off one star in my opinion.
Hi Kate, thank you so much for your feedback! I'm so sorry to hear about the crooked hook on the back of the frame. In the future, I'd be happy to send a replacement, but I apologize that it happened in the first place. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns!
These frames are very high quality - the wood grain is there and the color is perfect. these were such a great addition to our LOTR posters that we bought from Sylvan designs. Highly recommend!
