5ply Cradled Board and Frame Set
Description
13 standard sizes are listed here for ease, but for sizes not on the list, please get in touch with us for a quote.
Our Cradled Boards and Floater Frames are custom-made here on the Gold Coast, Qld by Waxy Art Supplies. Please note that these are handmade and require up to 14 days to produce.
This set comprises a 5-ply birch cradled board and a sustainably sourced Tasmanian Oak floater frame.
Simply unscrew and remove the cradled board from the frame. When the artwork is complete, replace the cradled board in its original position as indicated on the back and reattach the screws.
As the Sets are individually made, the frame and matching board are specific to each other. We don’t recommend swapping sets around, that is, using a different cradled board than was provided in the set, as the screw holes may not align.
Gallery-grade mounting hardware is included for easy attachment, such as plastic-coated wire, D-rings with screws, and felt bumpers
When choosing a frame and board Set, the size refers to the size of the cradled board.
The frame will allow for a 5mm gap between the board and the frame. The width of the frame face surface is 7mm and its outside depth is 43mm.

Our Signature Finishes - The Beauty of Natural Grain.
By using stains, rather than solid paints on our Tasmanian Oak, we allow the subtle depth, natural warmth, and beauty of the oak grain to remain visible.
Colours
White: For a clean, crisp, and fully opaque finish, pure white is our only solid coat option. (stark, vivid, crisp, Hamptons)
Limewash: If you want a light tone of white but prefer a softer, textured look, our limewash finish is an ideal alternative—softening the bright white while showcasing the oak’s natural pattern underneath. (soft, ethereal, warmer and more organic than white)
Clear: By far our most popular seller. It celebrates Tasmanian Oak in its purest form, highlighting the full warmth and unique character of the raw grain. (neutral, modern, clean, luminous)
Brown: A rich milk chocolate colour with subtle hints of the light undertone, and darker grain picked up by the stain. (warm, deep and moody)
Black: Unlike a flat, stark black paint, our black stain settles into a deep, sophisticated charcoal tone. This preserves the organic texture and underlying grain rather than masking it. (smoky charcoal, softened black, dramatic without losing soul)
All frames are sealed with the same protective topcoat, designed to protect the timber and impart a smooth, velvety satin low-sheen.
