Musical instrument wall art gets bought for a player far more often than for a room. A parent marking senior band night, a student after a first recital, a director at the end of a long marching season, a grown musician who still keeps the old case under the bed. Everything here is about an instrument somebody actually plays, and all of it is made to order in our family-owned shop in the USA.
What We Carry
Picture frames with a photo opening, one instrument at a time, across the whole band and orchestra: flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon and saxophone; trumpet, trombone, French horn, baritone horn and tuba; violin, cello, double bass and harp; acoustic, electric and bass guitar; piano and keyboard; drum set, drumline and mallet percussion. There are frames for singers, for color guard, and for the band director.
Then the patent prints, taken from the original drawings: trumpet, trombone, French horn, baritone horn, flute, clarinet, saxophone, bassoon, cello, drum set, bass guitar, electric guitar, an electric keyboard, the grand piano, and an 1885 drawing of a piano frame.
Choosing Between Them
The picture frames are for a moment — a concert, a competition, a last season. Each has an opening for your own photograph; we print the instrument design, and you slip in the picture of the player holding the real one. That is what makes them work as a section gift or on a senior night table.
The patent drawings are for the musician's room rather than the moment. They suit a studio, a practice room or an office, and they please people who know how their instrument is built — the valve layout, the key work, the bracing inside the body.
Sizes, Frames And Canvas
Picture frames come in four frame colors — Barnwood, Charcoal, Black, and Walnut — with an easel back, so they stand on a piano, a desk or a shelf as well as hang. The patent prints are on 1-inch gallery-wrapped canvas that hangs without nails or tools, with a floating frame available as an upgrade.
A Note On Getting It Right
The instrument matters more than people outside music expect. A clarinet player will not thank you for a saxophone, and a cellist is not a violinist with a bigger instrument. If you are buying for a section or a whole band, check each player's instrument before you order rather than choosing one design for everybody. A bass player in a rock band and a double bass player in an orchestra are two different gifts as well.

Band Director Picture Frame with Photo Opening for Teacher Gifts
This band director picture frame gives a music teacher's favorite photo a home beside a lit music stand, an open score, and a conductor's baton.
