All twelve finishes

Matte Black · a 12×12" wall frame

Matte Black Picture Frames

The highest-contrast finish in the range: a near-black moulding with a true black bevel inside it. Against a white wall it draws a deliberate line around the picture and stops the photograph drifting into its surroundings.

Wall frames from ₦12,000 · desk frames from ₦7,500

The price is the size, not the finish — Matte Black costs the same as every other one.

What it suits

High-contrast monochrome, street and documentary work, architecture, and any image built on strong graphic shapes. It also rescues a busy wall — patterned wallpaper, a crowded gallery arrangement — because a black edge reads as a boundary rather than as another piece of decoration competing for attention.

What it sits beside

Silver Metal and Classic White for a monochrome wall. Espresso when you want the same visual weight in a warmer register.

Worth knowing

On a dark, navy or charcoal wall this finish disappears and the print looks unmounted. Classic White or Silver Metal is the better call there.

Sizes and prices

Every size below can be ordered in Matte Black. Wall frames are peel-and-stick — no nails and no holes — and desk frames have an easel back.
