These hockey pucks were brought in by a client who CAUGHT them as a spectator over her many years of fandom. I have framed tons of sports memoribilia in my career--baseball bats, footballs, uniforms, etc, but somehow I hadn't encountered pucks before. They are surprisingly heavy. I was sure to use gatorboard backing to support the weight and managed to use an adhesive-free mounting technique.
The mat is a shimmery rice paper board from Bainbridge. Suggests ice in a subtle way, methinks. Overall, I like the bold graphic look of this box. A perfect square with 4 circles inside, with like colors arranged on diagonals. The scale of this moulding is just right for the objects. I can barely take credit, this thing practically designed itself.
