5 FINISH-SPECIFIC NOTES

What this finish
changes visually.

Editorial product observations to help compare color, contrast, and display character. These are not attributed customer reviews; verified reviews will be labeled separately.

01

Sharper contrast

The black perimeter gives bright foil, silver labels, and darker artwork a cleaner visual boundary.

02

Gallery character

It reads more like a display object than a colorful accessory, especially in dark showcases.

03

Quiet from a distance

The frame recedes visually so the card remains the first thing the eye catches.

04

Easy dark-card match

A dependable pairing for black, charcoal, monochrome, and high-contrast card art.

05

Obsidian in a mixed assortment

Obsidian gives shops and collectors a distinct display option while keeping the same clean FRAME 101 silhouette. It works especially well when merchandised beside contrasting finishes from the 01 / essentials family.
