Goldtone Tortoiseshell Metal Photo Frame - Brown & Gold

This photo frame pairs a rich brown tortoiseshell-effect face with gold-tone metal edges, giving a favourite picture a warm border with a glint of gold. The mottled brown runs across a broad, flat surround, and a slim gold line traces the opening, set a little way in so your photograph sits inside its own neat inner frame. The outer sides are finished in gold tone all the way round, so the frame looks as tidy from the side as it does from the front. It holds a single photograph in a rectangular opening with no mount, so the picture fills the space. We offer it in three sizes, 6 x 4in, 7 x 5in and 10 x 8in, each named for the print it takes.

Tortoiseshell has a way of settling into a room, and this one sits happily alongside warm wood, brass lamps, leather-bound books and deep painted walls. The 6 x 4in size suits a bedside table or a desk where a small photograph is seen up close, the 7 x 5in works well on a bookshelf or a dressing table, and the 10 x 8in has the presence for a sideboard or mantelpiece. Group the different sizes together for a layered display of family pictures, or let one hold a single treasured print.

The frame is made of metal, with a black backing and a fold-out strut that lets it stand on a flat surface, so it needs no wall fixing. To care for it, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and wipe away any marks with a slightly damp cloth before drying it straight away. Kept this way, the tortoiseshell-effect surround and gold-tone edges stay looking their best. It makes a lovely present framed with a photograph already in place, a simple way to turn a favourite picture into something worth keeping on show.

What sizes does this tortoiseshell photo frame come in?

We sell it in three sizes: 6 x 4in, 7 x 5in and 10 x 8in. Each is named for the print it takes, so choose the one that matches your photograph.

Does the frame stand up on its own?

Yes. A fold-out strut on the black backing lets it stand on a desk, shelf, sideboard or bedside table, with no wall fixing needed.

What is the frame made of?

The frame is metal, with a brown tortoiseshell-effect face, a slim gold line around the opening and gold-tone edges all the way round the outside.

Does it come with a mount?

No. It has a single rectangular opening with no mount, so your photograph fills the space and sits within the slim gold inner line.

How should I clean it?

Dust it with a soft dry cloth. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth and then dry the frame straight away to keep the tortoiseshell effect and gold tone looking their best.

Will it suit a room with brass or gold accents?

It will. The gold-tone edges sit well beside brass lamps and gold details, and the warm brown tortoiseshell effect complements wood furniture and darker painted walls.
