Embossed Wood Effect Photo Frame with Easel Stand - Grey

This grey photo frame wears a wood-effect finish with an embossed grain that you can see and feel, giving it a gently weathered look. The rectangular moulding is wide and stepped towards the picture, which draws the eye into your photograph and gives even a casual snapshot a considered setting. The colour is a soft mid grey, with lighter streaks running through the grain, so it suits black-and-white and colour photographs alike. It comes in four sizes, for 6 x 4in, 7 x 5in, 8 x 6in and 10 x 8in prints, so you can choose the one that fits the picture you have in mind.

A frame this simple in shape is happy anywhere: on a bedside table, a hallway console, a desk or a bookshelf in the living room. The grey grain suits a coastal or Scandinavian scheme, sits quietly beside white walls and natural textures, and still holds its own among stronger colours. Mixing the sizes along a mantelpiece or sideboard makes an easy, matched group, with the 10 x 8in holding the main picture and the 6 x 4in and 7 x 5in filling in around it. It makes a thoughtful gift, too, for anyone with a favourite photograph on their phone.

On the back, a black backing board is held by small clips, so you can lift it out, set your picture in place and close it up again. A fold-out easel stand lets it stand on a shelf or table, and two small hangers, one placed for hanging it upright and one for hanging it on its side, mean it can go on the wall. Dust the frame with a soft dry cloth and wipe away any marks with a lightly damp cloth. Our tip for gifting: print the photograph before you wrap it, so the frame is ready for display the moment it is opened.
