A5 Picture Frames
A5 picture frames and photo frames hold artwork measuring 14.8 × 21cm (5.8 × 8.3in), half the size of A4. They are perfect for postcards, small illustrations and notes, and look lovely on a desk, shelf or bedside table, or grouped in a tight gallery wall. For the full dimensions in mm, inches and pixels, see our A5 size guide.
Going bigger? Step up to A4, or see similar sizes in 5×7in and 6×8in. To frame a smaller piece with a border, add one of our mounts for A5 frames. Small frames shine in our bobbin and thin styles.
All our frames are handmade to order by Guild Certified Framers and finished with gallery-grade, shatterproof acrylic with UV protection. Explore 100+ finishes in all picture frames.
