Black Wood - 16x20 | Pressed Bouquet Frame
Use our interactive configurator to design your perfect preservation piece
Description
Sleek, modern, and a little dramatic.
A sleek opaque black finish with fine wood detailing. This frame gives your bouquet the treatment a gallery gives a painting: a dark, defined border that pulls the eye straight to the color inside. It is the frame we recommend most for city apartments, moody dining rooms, and couples who describe their style as modern or minimalist.
Black wood also does something wonderful for white and blush bouquets. Against the dark edge, pale petals look almost luminous.

Questions brides ask about this frame
Is the black matte or glossy? Opaque with a beautiful balance of matte and gloss, still allowing a fine wood grain to subtly show through.
Does the black frame make a dark bouquet disappear? Pair a deep burgundy or navy bouquet with a White or Natural background and the flowers stand out clearly. If you’re looking for a moody, academia design- choose the slate or olive background with dark-toned flowers to give your pressed flower frame the appearance of being an oil painting in a museum.
Can I match a black 10x10 to this frame? Yes. The 10x10 and 6x6 frame is available in black, so a bouquet and boutonniere, flower crown, or dedication bouquet can hang as a matched pair.

Who it is for
-
The bride who wants to see her whole bouquet again. A 16x20 holds the full range of your flowers, greenery included. If you want a smaller, more intimate piece, see our 10x10 or 6x6 frame sizes.
-
Parents and in laws. Many couples order a second frame from the same bouquet as a gift
-
Memorial flowers. Funeral and sympathy arrangements framed in a size that honors them
-
Anniversary gifts. The first anniversary is paper, but the one that gets hung on the wall is this. Traditionally, the fourth anniversary is flowers and fifth is wood - both anniversaries leading to the perfect reason to gift a bouquet recreation for preservation!
One bouquet, more than one piece
Your bouquet holds more flowers than one frame needs. We design every piece from the same bouquet in one preservation run, so it costs nothing extra in flowers to add a 6x6 for the boutonniere, a ring dish, or a paper preservation frame. Our preservation packages bundle a large products with smaller pieces and include a free prepaid overnight shipping label.
Questions brides ask about pressed bouquet frames
How much of my bouquet will I see? Nearly all of it. The 16x20 is our full representation size. Our frame size guide shows the difference between this and a 10x10 side by side.
Will my flowers change color? Yes, color shift is natural from fresh to pressed, and it will continue to change over the years. Whites will soften toward golden, and deep reds can darken. UV resistant glass slows this considerably over time. Our color change guide covers what to expect flower by flower.
What if my bouquet is already dried? It cannot be pressed flat for a frame. Dried flowers become dried petal confetti resin pieces, which are beautiful in their own right.
Can I see the design before it is sealed? Yes, with our Luxury Proofing Service, which adds a collaboration step with your artist.
How long does it take? Currently 6 to 12 months from the day your flowers arrive. We confirm your timeline when your bouquet is checked in.
