Description
This silverplated photo frame says Grandchildren in flowing black script across the top, a warm, simple way to keep a favourite picture of the little ones on show. The face has a soft satin silver finish, while a polished silver border surrounds the picture, giving the frame its gentle two-tone look. A fine black line sweeps out from the lettering along the top edge, and a second line curves across the bottom before finishing in two linked hearts in the lower right corner. It holds one 6 x 4in photograph in landscape, in a rectangular opening with no mount, so the picture sits up to the polished border. The frame measures 22.5cm wide, 17cm high and 1cm deep.
We think it makes a lovely gift for a grandmother or grandfather, especially with a recent photograph of the grandchildren slipped inside before you wrap it. Because it stands on its own strut, it needs no wall space or fixings: set it on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a bookshelf or a sideboard, where it will be seen every day. The landscape shape suits a group shot of brothers, sisters and cousins, or a holiday snap from a day at the beach. Its silver tones sit happily with both modern and traditional furnishings, and the slim profile keeps it neat on a busy shelf.
The frame is finished in real silverplate, and the satin face and polished inner border catch the light differently. A strut at the back holds it upright, so stand it on a flat, level surface. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, which can scratch a plated finish. For a finishing touch, choose a photograph where everyone is smiling at the camera, wrap the frame in tissue and add a card signed by each grandchild, for a present to keep close for years.
