Boxing Glove
Framing.
Hand-built deep shadow-box frames for signed gloves, championship pairs and fight-night memorabilia — acid-free cradles, UV glass, no pins through the leather. Made in our Timperley workshop, shipped UK-wide.
The glove deserves depth
A signed glove in a flat frame is a wasted glove.
A signed boxing glove is usually the most personal piece a fan or fighter ever owns — a title fight, a debut card, a retirement gift. We frame championship gloves, sparring pairs, vintage lace-ups and full fight-night collections from our Timperley workshop, and the brief is always the same: hold the gloves cleanly, protect the signature, build a frame the wall respects.
Every glove sits in an acid-free cradle inside a deep shadow-box frame — no pins through the leather, no glue near the signature — with UV-protective glazing as standard. Hand-cut mouldings, dark conservation mounts to lift the leather, gallery-grade finish.
No pins, no glue, no fade
Gloves are held with hidden archival fixings and acid-free supports — never pins through the leather, never glue near a signature. UV-protective glazing as standard to stop signatures fading and red leather oxidising.
Heavyweight finish
Hundreds of timber, painted and contemporary aluminium mouldings. Hand-cut deep boxes, dark conservation mounts to lift red, blue and black leather. Engraved plaques with fighter name, opponent and date.

Three ways to frame it
Single glove, signed pair or full fight-night collection.
Single signed glove
The classic. One signed glove mounted on a dark conservation board inside a deep shadow box with UV glass. Engraved plaque underneath with fighter name, weight class and fight date.
Signed pair
Both gloves displayed side-by-side, laces visible, in a wider deep-box frame. The standard format for championship-fight memorabilia and retirement gifts. Optional fight-card insert.
Fight night collection
Gloves with robe, shorts patch, ticket, programme and signed photograph — multi-aperture mount cut to your layout. The heirloom format for legacy fighters and championship nights.

Frequently asked
Boxing glove framing, answered.
A single signed glove in a deep-box frame with UV glass typically runs £200–£320. A signed pair runs £280–£420 depending on glove size, moulding and glass spec. Fight-night layouts with robe and programme are quoted on the piece — send a photo and rough sizes and we'll come back same day.
Never. We build acid-free cradles inside the shadow-box to support each glove from underneath and behind — no pins, no nails, no glue touching the leather. The gloves can be removed cleanly years later if needed.
UV-protective glass as standard on every memorabilia frame — it blocks the rays that fade signatures and dull red and blue leather. Anti-reflective and museum-grade options available for gloves displayed in well-lit rooms or south-facing walls.
Yes — we frame gloves from 1950s lace-up training pairs through to modern signed championship gloves. Unsigned gloves from a fighter's own collection often have huge personal value; we treat them exactly the same as signed pieces.
Boxing gloves need real depth — usually 75–110mm rebate depending on glove size and how plump the padding is. We measure each glove individually so the glass sits clear of the leather with a small breathing gap, and the frame still feels proportionate on the wall.
Standard turnaround is 10–14 working days from approval — slightly longer than flat memorabilia because each shadow-box cradle is built to the specific gloves. Rush work for birthdays, retirements and gift deadlines is regularly accommodated.
