Unframed canvas means that the artwork is not set into a frame. It can still be hung on your walls without a frame because the canvas comes pre-stretched and stapled onto wooden bars that create a simple internal frame. Unframed canvas prints are very popular. The modern minimalist look works especially well with today’s contemporary furniture and overall interior setting. If you plan to hang your canvas unframed then we suggest a gallery wrap because this means the canvas is stretched onto 1.5″ thick stretcher bars that are strong enough to be hung without the support of a frame. The chunkier proportions also compliment the canvas artwork as a whole, giving it a little more visual strength, something you need since there is no border frame.
A framed canvas print is also lovely and can feel more completed in a well appointed setting. Framed canvas works best when it matches and harmonizes with interior decoration. The frame itself can complement and highlight the quality of artwork. If you decide to frame abstract canvas art we prefer floater frames. They are simple and provide understated elegance to the art. They are available in gold, black, white, silver, brown, and more. If you choose a more traditional frame you can order the canvas art on the thinner 5/8” stretcher bars. This will reduce cost and give you more framing options.
