Object Framing – Elegantly Framing Three-Dimensional Works

Object framing is a special form of framing where three-dimensional objects, memorabilia, or art objects are showcased and simultaneously protected. At Artrahmen in Berlin, we offer custom object framing of the highest craftsmanship. From deep frames and spacer fillets to conservation mounting – we find the perfect solution for every object.

What is Object Framing?

In contrast to classic picture framing, which frames flat works such as photos, drawings, or prints, object framing introduces a third dimension. Typical objects for this type of framing include:

• Textiles (Jerseys, Embroideries, Scarves)
• Religious or cultural artifacts
• Memorabilia such as baby shoes, jewelry, or letters
• Technical objects, collectibles, medals, or militaria
• 3D photo montages

These objects are enclosed in specially made frames with spacing and depth. Depending on your preference, mat boards, linen or velvet backgrounds, UV-protective glass, or acrylic are used. The mounting is secure, mostly invisible, and reversible.

Custom Design for Personal Treasures

Object framing tells a story. Whether it’s an inherited piece of jewelry, a medal, an old toy, or a museum piece – we design your object framing to highlight the emotional or cultural value of its contents. Our experts will advise you comprehensively on design, protection, and hanging. Together, we select materials and design options that suit your object and desired style.

Techniques & Materials for Object Frames

We exclusively use high-quality materials and employ state-of-the-art framing techniques. These include:

• Spacer frames and shadow gap frames with depth effect
• Special glass (e.g., museum glass, acrylic glass, UV protection)
• Acid-free background materials such as museum board or linen
• Custom constructions and mounts for secure fastening
• Magnetic or rear-opening systems for later removal

All framings are expertly carried out in our Berlin workshop with the utmost care. We ensure long-term stability, appealing aesthetics, and ease of handling.

For Museums, Collectors, and Private Memorabilia

Our object framings are used in galleries, exhibitions, museums, and private homes. They are suitable for valuable individual pieces as well as for series or collections. Our solutions for framing collectibles, textiles, or awards are particularly in demand. Gift ideas can also be presented in an exceptional and personal way through object framing.
