Gessobord Shadow Box

"I'm having all of these warm and fuzzy surface-adoring feelings about Ampersand's Gessobord. The inside of the Shadow Box is super smooth, but also a little bit toothy and it takes the paint in the loveliest, kind of contemporary-ethereal way." - Kaetlyn Able

The shadow box is coated with premium gesso on the inside and the sides are handcrafted with premium-grade birch plywood. Perfect for dioramas, installations, and three-dimensional painting.
