Hi everyone,
This is on a shelf on a display stand and the full sentence is: 'Marie-louise écran masqué 22 pouces'.
Below it is a tablet. Is this simply a framed tablet?
Thanks!
Nick

bezel
As it's a screen, I think I'd go with "bezel" or if not "edge border"

Thanks Victoria. That's an encouraging agree as we don't have a picture

inner frame
The Larousse translates it as "inner frame" or "harmonized border" and the French Wikipédia page describes it.
So a slightly technical framing term, but maybe, as you suggest, in your context simply "framed". Is the tablet a computer tablet?

Note from asker:
| Yes! I think it's just an enclosed tablet (enclosed in the structure of the display stand). |
Discussion
Or the type of frame referred to by Bokani:
A Marie-Louise is a type of intermediate frame that is placed between a framed work without glass and the frame. It is made from wood and is covered in fabric (often linen). It is mainly used for oil paintings.

"The name ‘Marie Louise’ was chosen as a reference to the French word for the mount in a painting – in other words, the element linking the frame to the work of art."
