Where to buy. . .frames with glass, no mat?

In My Humble Opinion
1

I’m looking for one of those frames that is basically two pieces of glass, front and back, with no mat, so you can see all the way to the edges of what’s being framed?

I’m not even sure what to google.

Anyone know of a direct link to something like that? Not just a “frames.com” site that I would have to search. I’ve searched. I don’t know what to search for.

IKEA sells rimless frames.

So do a lot of household stores, like Bed Bath & Beyond, or Linens & Things. You can even find them at Marshall’s sometimes.

I know exactly what you’re talking about. Ikea used to sell them–the panes of glass are held together by metal clips.

I’m not sure if they still sell them; I bought mine years ago. It may be worth it to check there, though.

actually, what I’m talking about has a FRAME. it’s not just two piece of glass held together with clips. It’s a frame that holds two pieces of glass.

But, still, those stores are probably worth a look. We’ve been into a Michael’s recently, though, and I don’t recall seeing them. . .thing is, I wasn’t specifically looking for them at that time, but I am now.

I got mine at http://www.aaronbrothers.com/app/locator has stores in 11 states.

I bought a frame like the one you describe at Target. Check their website.

Trunk, you’re looking for floating frames. Get Smart Products

Did you just get regular frames there, or frames like I’m describing?

Because, I’m not seeing what I’m looking for there.

For my needs, the print looks like it’s “floating” in between the frames. No mat. You could flip it over and see the back side of the print if you wanted.

Yup.

Also, I just found "document frames at Amazon.

Thanks, all.

Those are called Museum Frames or Floating Photo (or Picture) Frames. Bedford-Downing in NYC was the originator of them. Searching on either of the latter two should get you what you want pretty easily.
