Shadow Boxes

	The “Super Deep Shadow Box” line was designed to fill customers’ needs to have items like footballs, baseballs, helmets, shoes, hats, war articles, guns, antique collectibles, baby dresses and dried flowers framed. If there was one thing all of these items had in common is that they all needed to be at least 5 inches deep and
even as deep as 16 inches. So each time, my options were limited to two: order an expensive custom acrylic box or stack moulding on top of moulding to achieve the depth required.

Construction and Finish

A Super-Deep Shadow Box is made using two main parts: a hardwood face frame and veneered classic core plywood sides. The use of the solid wood face frame attached to the plywood allows us to make a shadow box that is stable and strong. The strength of this construction is what allows the boxes to be built up to 22 inches deep.

Every Super-Deep Shadow Box has a two step finish. Each frame is hand rubbed with a minimum of two coats of stain. Then each frame is sealed with a semi gloss acrylic. This two step process brings out the beauty of the wood as well as giving a durable long lasting finish.

The large 2” wide profile is suitable for larger frames with greater depth. With this moulding we can build the “Super Deep Shadow Boxes” as deep as 22”.

2” Samples: Sizes: 8x10 to 48x96 Minimum Depth 3” Maximum Depth 22” The smaller 1” wide profile is suitable for frames as deep as 8”. 1” Samples: Sizes: 8x10 to 24x30 Minimum Depth 3” Maximum Depth 8”
