Curved Edge Silverplated Metal Photo Frame 8 x 6in - Silver

This curved edge photo frame is made from metal with a real silverplated finish, and it holds a single print in a clean rectangular opening. The border rises in a smooth, rounded curve towards the picture. Light runs across the surface, and the polished silver catches the eye with no pattern or decoration to compete with your picture. The frame is 24.8cm tall, 19.6cm wide and 1.5cm deep, a slim profile that sits neatly on a shelf. There is no mount, so your print fills the opening right to the edge of the silver.

Because it can stand or hang, it suits almost anywhere in the home. Stand it on a bedside table, a mantelpiece or a desk in the study, or hang it in a hallway or on a living room wall alongside other frames. The plain silver works with most interiors, from a pale, modern room to a more traditional space with dark wood furniture. An 8 x 6in print is large enough for a portrait or a family group to be seen clearly from across the room. It is a lovely way to keep a favourite face close, and it makes a considered gift for someone who already has a print they love.

On the back, small clips hold a black backing in place. A fold-out strut lets the frame stand upright on a flat surface, and a hanger at the top takes a picture hook when you would rather put it on the wall. Silver plating keeps its shine best with gentle handling: dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive polishes or rough cloths that could scratch the finish. For a gift, we suggest slipping a printed photograph inside before you wrap it, so it is ready to stand on a shelf the moment it is unwrapped.
