Choosing the Perfect ASU Diploma Frame

Selecting the right diploma frame involves considering several factors, including style, materials, and personalization options. Our best-selling ASU degree frame, made of solid wood, is bound to make any Sun Devil smile. Custom frames make the perfect Arizona State University graduation gift. Whichever Arizona State University diploma frame you purchase, we guarantee your overall satisfaction. Here's a breakdown of what to consider:

Frame Styles

Classic Frames: Traditional frames offer a timeless look that complements any decor. These often feature solid wood mouldings with various finishes, such as mahogany, cherry, or black.
Contemporary Frames: Modern frames incorporate sleek lines and minimalist designs. Metal frames or those with a simple wood finish are popular choices.
Specialty Frames: These frames cater to specific tastes or needs, such as double diploma frames for those with multiple degrees or frames designed for specific ASU schools like the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law.

Materials and Construction

Solid Wood: Known for its durability and elegance, solid wood frames are a popular choice. Options range from hardwoods like oak and maple to more exotic woods.
Recycled Wood: For the environmentally conscious, frames made from 100% recycled wood offer a sustainable option without sacrificing quality or aesthetics.
Metal: Metal frames provide a sleek, modern look and are often more lightweight than wood frames.

Matting Options

Single Mat: A single mat provides a clean and simple border around the diploma, highlighting the document without being overly distracting.
Double Mat: Using two mats adds depth and visual interest to the frame. The inner mat can be a contrasting color to draw attention to the diploma.
Archival Matting: Crucial for preserving the diploma, archival matting is acid-free and lignin-free, preventing discoloration and deterioration over time.

Personalization

Embossed Frames: Frames with the ASU seal or name embossed in gold or silver add a touch of official elegance.
Custom Mat Colors: Choose mat colors that reflect your personal style or complement your home or office decor.
Engraved Plaques: Adding a small engraved plaque with your name, graduation year, or a brief message can make the frame even more special.

Acid-free and lignin-free matting is essential to prevent the diploma from yellowing or becoming brittle over time. These materials protect the diploma from harmful acids that can degrade the paper.

UV Protective Glass

Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light can cause fading and discoloration of the diploma. UV protective glass filters out these harmful rays, ensuring that your diploma remains vibrant and legible for decades.

I'm not attending the ceremony, but I'd still like to send out announcements. Is that ok? Yes, we have many students that send out announcements even if they cannot attend their ceremony.
