Shadow Boxes

Utilizing a shadow box offers a unique way to showcase an item or group of items that may not fit into a standard frame. Are you attempting to show off three-dimensional sports memorabilia, such as a signed baseball? Or perhaps you’re looking to surprise your parents with a display containing party favors from their wedding. If you have a specialized item or collection of items you are looking to keep safe and visible, we can help by creating a display case with custom framing for your collectibles.

Old Main Frame Shop offers custom framing solutions to State College and the surrounding areas. We have over 40 years of experience providing personalized service to meet the needs of every project and budget. We understand that each project is different, which is why we offer a consultation to ensure we understand the nuances of your particular vision. Our patrons have come to expect detailed, quality products that complement the items on display. Your interest is our interest — that is why our team will work closely with you to generate a creative design for your exact needs.

Make Your Memories Last With a Shadow Box

Our versatile shadow boxes can commemorate a multitude of items. If your son or daughter has a favorite comic book character, why not create a display that incorporates artwork and figurines of that hero? Maybe you’re looking to honor a veteran in your family with a design that proudly displays his or her uniform. You can depend on our expertise and precision to bring your vision to life. The finished product will align with your design goals, complementing your existing decor and drawing visitors’ eyes to the items you wish to display.

Creating a custom wall shadow box offers benefits outside of aesthetic value. A shadow box will protect items, maintaining their integrity against wear and damage. Our museum-quality framing techniques ensure that your items remain in pristine condition. You want to honor and celebrate these treasured tokens, and our customized shadow boxes can help you do this.

Custom Engravings Add a Personal Touch

If you are creating a gift for a loved one, you might consider adding an engraved plaque to your shadow box. Engraved plaques are completely customizable and appropriate for a plethora of occasions. For example, if you are celebrating an anniversary, your spouse will likely be touched to see the date of your wedding on display beneath a photo of you making your vows. Your engraved plaque makes the shadow box completely your own.
