Description
This metal photo frame gives a christening photograph a soft and gentle setting, with the words My Christening set in silver lettering across a pale blue mount. The single rectangular opening takes a 6 x 4in print in portrait, framed by the mount and a slim, silver-toned metal alloy border with a plated finish. The whole frame measures 20.2cm along its longer side and 15.4cm along its shorter side, and it is 2.4cm deep, so it sits comfortably on a shelf or a bedside table. The blue is a quiet, powdery shade rather than a bright one, which lets the photograph itself stay the centre of attention.
We see this as a thoughtful christening gift, the kind of present that is kept and brought out for years. Choose a favourite photograph from the service, a family portrait at the font or a close-up from the celebration afterwards, and the frame does the rest, since the words on the mount already say what the day was. It suits a nursery shelf, a chest of drawers, a mantelpiece or a dressing table, and the soft blue sits happily alongside white, cream, grey and natural wood. Because it is freestanding on its strut, it needs no wall and no fixings, so it can move from room to room.
The frame is made from metal alloy with a plated finish, and the back is a black panel with a strut that holds the frame upright on any flat surface. Your print goes in from the back, sitting behind the mount. For care, dust the metal with a soft, dry cloth and wipe away fingerprints gently; avoid harsh cleaners and abrasive pads, which can dull a plated surface. As a christening present, it works beautifully with a print of the day already in place, or given empty with a note so the family can choose their own favourite picture to keep close.
