What is a box frame?
A box frame – sometimes called a shadow box – is a deeper style of picture frame that creates space between your artwork or photograph and the front glass. Unlike flat traditional frames, a box frame allows the subject to sit further back, giving the image or object a sense of depth and presence. It’s a subtle difference, but it completely changes the look. Whether you’re framing a vintage print, a treasured family photo or a delicate keepsake, a box frame gives it a stage of its own.
These frames are typically chunkier in profile, which makes them stand out beautifully on walls or shelves. Available in clean black, crisp white, rustic wood and modern grey finishes, the box frames at Rinkit offer a striking way to elevate any display. They're simple, but they make a statement.
Why use a box frame?
There’s something quietly special about the way a box frame adds dimension to your display. It gives photographs a gallery-style finish, while also allowing space for creative compositions. Think pressed flowers, miniature mementoes, dried leaves or baby keepsakes – anything that doesn’t quite fit in a standard frame finds a home here.
Box frames are also ideal if you like switching up your decor seasonally. Their depth gives even the most basic photo or print a bold visual edge – helping it hold its own in a gallery wall or as a standalone piece. And because many of them can be freestanding as well as wall-mounted, you’re not locked into one spot either. They give you options – in both style and placement.
Framing made simple – and stylish
At Rinkit, our collection of box photo frames is designed to suit all kinds of interior styles. Whether your space leans towards classic charm or minimal modern lines, there’s a shape and finish to fit right in. The clean edges and clear glass keep the focus where it should be – on your chosen memory or artwork – while the box structure gives it the gravity and presence it deserves.
So if you’re looking to add depth to your decor without fuss, a box frame might be exactly what you need. Just slot in your favourite piece, and let it do the talking.
