Simple pair pricing

Price follows
the length.

Every option is sold as a pair of two bars. The price is fixed by length, and your color choice does not change it. Choose two pairs—matching or mixed lengths—to build a complete frame.

Prices shown are per pair. Current colors, made-to-order availability, shipping, and checkout are handled on Etsy.

Build your frame

Four bars.
One square idea.

Pick one pair for the top and bottom, then another pair for the sides. A 6-inch pair plus an 8-inch pair makes a 6 × 8 frame.

  1. 01
    Choose two pairs

    Match lengths for a square or mix them for a rectangle.

  2. 02
    Press corners together

    Seat each joint until the frame is flush and square.

  3. 03
    Tack beside the joints

    Keep tacks out of the corner seams for the cleanest hold.

Bars connect at the corners. Do not join them end-to-end to create extra-long sides.

Small-batch by design

Made by makers,
for makers.

Denton Curio Co started with one useful question: could the humble stretcher bar be lighter, cleaner, and a little more fun? We design, print, and check every set in our Denton workshop.

Good to know

A few answers
before you frame.

Still wondering about a size, color, or custom order? We’re happy to help.

Email hello@dentoncurioco.com
What comes in one order?

Each standard listing is one pair—two bars of the same length. A complete frame needs two pairs, or four bars total.

Can I mix different sizes?

Yes. Mix one pair of one length with a second pair of another length to create a rectangular frame.

How do I care for PLA bars?

Keep them at normal room temperature. PLA can soften around 140°F, so avoid hot cars, sunny windowsills, and summer mailboxes after delivery.

Why does checkout happen on Etsy?

Etsy securely handles payment, tax calculation, tracking, and order protection while our shop is small. You still buy directly from Denton Curio Co.

Do you make custom or wholesale sets?

Yes. We can discuss custom colors, branded inlays, guild orders, and small wholesale runs. Email us with the sizes and quantity you have in mind.
