Framing in San Francisco: Honoring Love and Tradition Through Custom Ketubah Framing

At Underglass Framing in San Francisco, we’ve spent 40 years helping our clients preserve their most meaningful moments  and few pieces capture love and commitment like a ketubah. These beautifully crafted marriage contracts hold deep emotional and cultural significance, and framing them is always an honor for us.

For this recent project, our client brought in a stunning circular ketubah printed on fine art paper with deckled edges. The artwork features a serene watercolor wash with soft blues blending into a darker horizon line beneath the vows and signature area. Nearly two years after their wedding day, the couple wanted to ensure their ketubah reflected not only their love story but also their home’s modern warmth.

We guided them through every design choice to create a frame that feels both timeless and personal. The ketubah now floats gently on a linen fabric mat, adding texture and subtle contrast against a soft, off white background. To complement that warmth, we selected a substantial walnut frame that is modern, rich, and full of natural character. Hidden spacers ensure the art never touches the glass, and the  Museum Glass provides the highest level of UV protection and anti-reflective clarity, so the piece will stay vibrant for generations.

At Underglass, we’ve framed countless ketubahs over the years, and each one reminds us how meaningful our craft is. These are not just artworks, they’re heirlooms of love, memory, and family. Whether newlyweds or celebrating a milestone anniversary, many of our clients choose to frame their ketubah long after the wedding and it’s never too late to make something beautiful, lasting, and deeply personal.
