Below: Background for a Fan
This beautiful Fan Frame was designed by Tim Franer and includes a Custom Panel Liner we created to go around the particular shape of this fan. We can now create literally any shape you might ask for in sizes up to 48" X 96". Available Raw or Covered with any of over 300 fabrics, Raphael's Custom Panel Liners can help you transform a creative concept into distinctive framing your customers will treasure forever.
Below: An Organizational Chart with Style The organizational chart shown below is just one of many custom configurations we have created in this type of piece. We can make these in sizes up to an outside size of 48" X 96". In this case we included a fabric-covered mat surface with small insets around each window that allowed us to accent the windows with one of our Inlays. This is a much faster solution that using fillets in a mat window and also includes small rabbets the photos sit into. The backing board opens up to allow the pictures to be loaded or changed and glass or plexi can be placed over the whole piece or individually into the windows.
Below: A Liner with 143 Openings
If you need more than 143 openings in your Liner all you have to do is ask.
Below: A Unique Approach to Displaying a Special Sword
The owner of this sword was looking for a way to display this sword without having to tie it to the base of this shadow box - it is actually held in place at a couple of points by very strong rare earth magnets. (We don't recommend this approach if you have kids around or if you do not plan to include some sort of closure over the front of the display.)
Next Two Images Below: Adding an Inlay Accent
We can include any of half a dozen different Inlays in Custom Panel Liners like the ones shown in the next two images below.
Below: Putting Fabric-Wrapped Mats and Liners together can really create some spectacular looks.
Custom Hardwood Shadow Box and Float Frames with Custom Fabric-Covered Liners like the ones shown in the next few images below can be ordered in sets or individually. Create an even more custom look by adding a matching easel back and unique hardwood stand as is shown in the third image below.
Custom Photo Frames like the ones shown below can be ordered covered with most of our Fabrics or you can order them Raw and cover them with your client's Material. Keeping a few popular sizes or configurations on hand will allow you to turn out very Custom product in just minutes. You could order any of the three layouts shown below already covered with Fabric for less than $50.00.
We can really customize your photo frames by using the same fabric to cover the front side of the panel like the example below . . .

and then include the same fabric as part of a uniquely custom closure for your photo frame. We can also create a custom hardwood stand like the one shown below that matches the hardwood frame.

Two-Sided Displays as shown in the images below can be created with any number of openings, in almost any size. The first piece shown below front and then back,was 9" X 11" overall with two openings. The panel was covered with a Black Cotton fabric on both sides, includes Canarywood trim and base, and non-glare plexi to protect both sides of each object. Absolutely unique and all for under $60.

The next piece in the two images below is a simple medallion set into a panel covered in our Silk # 1073. Non-glare plexi protects both sides of the medallion and the piece includes a Canarywood base and trim. This piece measured 8" X 8" and cost less than $50 everything included. Isn't this the sort of unique product your customers would appreciate?
