Criss Cross Metal Photo Frame with Mount 7 x 5in - Silver

This metal photo frame wraps a favourite picture in a bright silver border, worked all the way round with a fine criss cross pattern that catches the light. The lines curve and cross along the moulding to form a soft lattice, giving the frame texture and detail without competing with the photograph inside. A clean white mount sits between the border and the picture, leaving a little breathing space and drawing the eye straight to the faces in it. It takes a 7 x 5in print, a handy size for photographs printed from a phone, and the frame stands 22cm tall.

The shiny silver sits happily with almost any scheme, from crisp whites and soft greys to warm wood and painted panelling. Stand it on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a sideboard or a desk, where its slim 1cm depth lets it fit on a busy shelf, or hang it in a hallway, on a landing or above a console table. Because silver goes with so much, it makes an easy gift for anyone with a photograph worth keeping close.

The back is finished in black, with an easel strut so the frame stands on its own and two hanging points: one along the top edge to hang it upright and one on the side to hang it on its long edge. So the same frame works on a shelf or on a wall, whichever suits the room and the picture. To keep the silver bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth and steer clear of harsh cleaners; a lightly damp cloth lifts fingerprints, as long as you dry it straight away. Hang it among other family pictures along a hallway for a lovely display, or slip a print inside before wrapping for a gift that is ready to stand.
