Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a pair of substrates arranged to face each other, and electrodes respectively arranged on inner sides of the substrates, define a plurality of pixels in a display region. A sealing frame surrounds an outer side of the display region between the pair of substrates, and joins the substrates with a predetermined gap in which a liquid crystal layer is provided. A plurality of spacer elements are dispersed between the substrates and have a diameter that restricts a length of the gap between the substrates. A support layer is provided in a clearance between the display region and the sealing frame between the pair of substrates, and comes into contact with those of the spacer elements which are positioned close to the sealing frame, to support these spacer elements to prevent a deformation of the substrate.
