Description
This 80th birthday photo frame pairs silver glitter with mirrored glass, with the number 80 picked out in sparkle just beneath the picture. The glitter is thickest across the top and softens as it falls, giving way to a clear mirrored band around the lower half, where the 80 sits. It holds a single 6 x 4in photograph in a rectangular opening with no mount, so the picture sits close against the glass surround. The frame stands 21.7cm tall, 16.7cm wide and 1cm deep, a size that suits a mantelpiece or a bedside table without crowding it.
We think of it as a birthday gift for anyone turning 80, marking the milestone with something they will keep long after the cards come down. Fill it with a photograph from the party, a family gathering on the day or a favourite picture from years gone by, and it becomes a keepsake of the celebration. The mirrored glass catches the light from a window or a lamp, so it sits happily in a living room, on a hall table, on a dressing table or on a sideboard. Because it stands on its own strut, it needs no wall space and no nail, and it can move from room to room whenever you like.
The frame is made of glass, finished with silver glitter over a mirrored surface, and a strut at the back holds it upright on any flat, steady shelf or table. To keep it bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe the plain mirrored areas gently with a slightly damp cloth, going lightly over the glitter rather than rubbing it. As with any glass piece, stand it back from the edge of a shelf where it will not be knocked. For gifting, slip the chosen photograph in before you wrap it, so the person celebrating opens the memory along with the frame.

Frequently Asked
What size photograph does this frame hold?
It holds a single 6 x 4in photograph in a rectangular opening. There is no mount, so the picture fills the space right up to the glass surround.
How big is the frame overall?
The frame is 21.7cm tall, 16.7cm wide and 1cm deep. That is compact enough for a bedside table, a mantelpiece or a dressing table.
Does the frame hang on the wall or stand up?
It stands on a strut at the back, so it sits upright on a shelf, table or mantelpiece and needs no wall fixing at all.
What is the frame made of?
It is made of glass with a mirrored finish. Silver glitter fades down from the top towards the lower half, where the number 80 sits in glitter.
Is it a good gift for an 80th birthday?

How should I clean the frame?
Dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe the mirrored glass gently with a slightly damp cloth. Go lightly over the glitter rather than rubbing it.
