Description
This silver-plated photo frame celebrates a new arrival with three little raised squares down one side, each holding a tiny teddy bear, a duck or a little car. The square frame is finished in two tones of silver: a soft satin border around the opening and shiny squares that catch the light. It is 15.5cm high, 15.5cm wide and just 1.5cm deep, so it sits neatly on a shelf without taking over. The single rectangular opening holds a 5 x 3.5in photograph upright, a good size for a first portrait of a sleeping newborn.
We think it makes a thoughtful gift for new parents, whether you are visiting after the birth or sending something to mark the happy news. The teddy, duck and car keep it gentle and playful rather than fussy, and the silver suits most rooms, so it looks just as much at home in a nursery as on a living room shelf, a bedside table or a grandparent's mantelpiece. It is a keepsake for a little one's first three years and beyond, rather than a toy, so it is best placed on a shelf or dresser away from small hands.
The frame is made of metal with a silver-plated finish, and the back is finished in black with a fold-out easel stand, so it stands on any flat surface and needs no wall or fixings. Swivel clips on the back open it to slide the photograph in. To keep the silver bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh polishes or abrasive cleaners, which can wear a plated surface. Slip a favourite newborn photo in before you wrap it, and the new parents will have a ready-made keepsake from the very first day.
