Give cherished memories and beloved friends and family members the showcase they deserve with this...Give cherished memories and beloved friends and family members the showcase they deserve with this 8" x 10" Box Photo Frame from Nicola Spring. Each box photo frame in our collection has been crafted from acrylic for the optimum blend of lightness and durability. Multiple hanging points on the reverse allow for seamless display in either portrait or landscape, while a neat folding strut offers that same flexibility for standing on a table, shelf or mantlepiece. What truly sets these frames apart from the competition, however, is the cover; a sheet of genuine glass that bathes the photography or artwork behind it in a luxurious shine. For a final pièce de résistance, this box photo frame comes with a removable 'spacer frame' that gives you the choice of three display positions. Combine all three across multiple frames for a striking multi-dimensional effect! Product SKUs ST-NS-DWF216-S x 1
This 8" x 10" Nicola Spring 3D Box Photo Frame in White is ideal for anyone looking to beautifully display cherished photos or artwork with a modern, multi-dimensional effect. Its key benefit is the versatility offered by the removable spacer frame, allowing for custom depth and a luxurious finish thanks to its genuine glass front. A potential caveat is the acrylic construction, which, while lightweight and durable, may be more prone to scratching than traditional glass frames.

FAQs
What are the dimensions of the frame?
The frame is designed to hold an 8" x 10" photograph or artwork.
Can I use this frame for thicker objects?
The frame is primarily designed for flat photos or artwork. The removable spacer provides some depth, but it is not a deep shadow box for bulky items.
How do I clean the glass front?
Use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with glass cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Can the frame be hung both horizontally and vertically?
Yes, the frame features multiple hanging points on the reverse, allowing for both portrait and landscape orientation on the wall.
What is the purpose of the 'spacer frame'?
The removable spacer frame adds a 3D effect by creating a recess for your photo or artwork, allowing for different display depths and a more dynamic presentation.
Is the frame made of glass or acrylic?
The frame itself is crafted from durable acrylic, but the front cover is made of genuine glass for a clear, high-shine finish.
Can I stack multiple spacer frames for more depth?
Yes, the product description suggests combining all three spacer frames across multiple frames for a striking multi-dimensional effect, implying they can be layered.
Troubleshooting
Frame appears dusty inside
Carefully open the frame, clean any dust from the inside of the glass and the back of the photo using a soft brush or microfiber cloth, then reassemble.
Photo does not fit flush with the 3D spacer
Ensure the correct side of the spacer frame is facing outwards and that all layers are correctly seated before closing the frame.
Frame clasps are difficult to close
Check that all components (glass, spacer, photo, backboard) are perfectly aligned and not protruding, then try closing the clasps again.
Acrylic frame surface has light smudges
Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to gently buff out smudges. For tougher marks, use a cloth lightly dampened with water or a specialized acrylic cleaner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Open the frame by releasing the rear clasps.
Remove the protective films from the glass and the spacer frame.
If using the 3D effect, insert the desired number of spacer frames (one, two, or all three) around the glass.
Place your 8" x 10" photo or artwork onto the backboard, ensuring it is positioned correctly.
Carefully reassemble the frame, ensuring all parts are aligned.
Secure the rear clasps firmly.

Compatibility:
Photo/Artwork Size: Designed for 8" x 10" prints. The removable spacer frame accommodates smaller items or creates a recessed look for the 8" x 10" print itself.
Display Surface: Suitable for wall mounting (portrait or landscape) or standing on flat surfaces like tables and shelves.
Care:
Glass Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with glass cleaner for the front glass. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the glass to prevent liquid seeping into the frame.
Frame Body: Wipe the acrylic frame and spacer with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or cloths that could scratch the acrylic.
Storage: If storing the frame, ensure it is clean and dry, and protect the glass front from potential impact.
