From Court to Frame - Where the Story Lives On

From Court to Frame - Where the Story Lives On

Framing a tennis racket is more than a display choice. It preserves the story behind the piece, whether it was used in a special match, signed by a player, or part of a personal milestone.

At Frames Now, we have decades of experience in conservation grade framing for sports memorabilia. Each item is handled with care, using materials that protect and enhance its appearance. Here is how we approach tennis racket framing and why it matters.

Why Frame a Tennis Racket?

  • Prevent damage: Rackets made from graphite, carbon fibre, and synthetic grips can deteriorate when exposed to dust, light, or moisture. Framing keeps them protected.
  • Celebrate milestones: A framed racket highlights your achievement, whether it is a club win or a professional debut.
  • Preserve history: Signed or match-used rackets hold sentimental and historical value. Framing helps retain that story.
  • Enhance your space: A framed racket adds character to your home, clubroom, or office.

How We Frame a Tennis Racket

Each racket is unique, so every frame is built to suit the item. Our process includes a custom shadow box that provides the depth required for the racket while keeping a clean presentation. Each racket is mounted securely using non-invasive methods that prevent any damage. We use conservation-grade materials such as acid-free mats and UV-protective glass to protect against fading and deterioration.

You can also include additional elements such as a photo of the player or match, an engraved plaque with key details, or an event or tournament logo to complete the display.

 

         

Example from Our Workshop

A client once brought a signed racket from a Grand Slam finalist. We designed a deep shadow box with UV-protective glass and archival backing. A photo from the match and a personalised plaque completed the frame. The final result protected the racket and told the full story in one piece.
