Show off your colors like never before! An archival,  acid-free  textured clay surface that absorbs watercolors like a fine paper, Aquabord allows colors to retain their purity and vibrancy in a way that even the finest watercolor papers can't match. 
  Its unique surface is perfect for watercolors and gouache, needs no stretching, and will not tear, shrink, or buckle. 
  Endlessly glaze and lift to underlying layers of color&nbsp;&mdash; or completely lift back to white without damaging the surface! 
  Aquabord is also ideal for casein, acrylics, and more. Unlike paper, Aquabord can be sealed and displayed  glass-free , keeping colors and textures true to life. 
  Aquabord is made in the USA.

http://www.dickblick.com/products/ampersand-aquabord/. Aquabord is an amazing acid-free surface for water media that won't warp, buckle or tear. This surface works similarly to a cold-press watercolor paper with several benefits: colors remain true and vibrant since the paint sits on top of the surface rather than absorbing into it. Multiple layers of clean color can be stacked one on top of the other, and lifting back to white is incredibly easy. You can scrub the surface without any damage -- and once your painting is complete, you can frame without glass or backing!

Ampersand Floaterframes - Left Angle of Bold Face Black, White, Maple and Walnut frames

•	Solid wood floater frames
•	Available in four colors and multiple sizes
•	Choose from defined thin or dramatic bold profiles
•	Choose from 7/8" or 1-1/2" rabbet depths 
•	Hanging hardware included 

A do-it-yourself frame specifically designed for use with wood panels, Ampersand Floaterframes are great for stretched canvases and flat panels as well! Every detail of the Floaterframe has been designed and engineered to deliver a simple, all-in-one framing solution that protects your artwork while giving it the finished look it deserves. 

Made with premium hardwood, the Ampersand Floaterframe features precisely constructed reinforced corners, a wider drill base, and pre-drilled countersunk mounting holes. All mounting and hanging hardware is provided to quickly and easily attach your artwork to the frame, including mounting screws, screw eyes, a hanger, picture wire, and bumper pads. 

The Ampersand Floaterframe is available in two elegant styles — a thin 1/4" face and a bold 3/8" face. Both styles are available in 7/8" and 1-1/2" depths to accommodate 7/8" and 1-1/2" profile artwork. A riser system is only included with the 7/8" deep frames so a 3/4" stretched canvas or flat panel can be used.

__Open Back Frames__ - These frames are meant to be hung on the wall and are sold as just the frame face. They are not shipped with backing material, glazing material, or hanging hardware. 


Made from premium hardwood, these professional-quality frames have a wider base that eliminates damage to the panel cradle. A higher profile and deeper rabbet protect panel corners, too. The Ampersand Floaterframe includes hanging hardware.

Show off your colors like never before! An archival, acid-free textured clay surface that absorbs watercolors like a fine paper, Aquabord allows colors to retain their purity and vibrancy in a way that even the finest watercolor papers can't match.
