The Lobster Trap Art Gallery is a unique art gallery in Islamorada. We offer custom printing on virtually anything, We also offer beautiful Frames.

OUR FRAMES are made from real lobster trap wood that was used to harvest lobsters here in the Keys. After 5 or so seasons of using these traps, the hardware that holds them together starts to rust, and the lobstermen can no longer use them. We take these older traps, break them down and use the weathered wood to make the frames you see here. We take great care to keep the staples, nails, and other fasteners in the wood to keep it looking the same as when used as a working trap. After carefully constructing the frames, we varnish or white-wash them to make them suitable for use to complement any piece of artwork. Because of the unusual aging process of the wood, no two frames are the same. We then place our original art or your favorite photo or art inside the frames. Custom printing!
