Shiny Wave Satin Silverplated Double Photo Frame 6 x 4in - Silver

This double photo frame in satin silverplated metal opens like a book on two small hinges, holding a pair of photographs side by side. Each rectangular opening takes a 6 x 4in print, and both are set upright in portrait, so two favourite pictures sit at the same height and size. Down the sides of each panel runs a shiny wave, a polished ribbon of silver that curves against the softer satin finish around it. It gives the frame a gentle play of light without any fuss. The edges and back are black, which frames the silver neatly from the side.

Standing open on its hinge, the frame is freestanding and needs no wall or hook, so it suits a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a bedside table or a desk at home or at work. It is 20cm tall and 3cm deep, a size that sits comfortably on a shelf without crowding it. Two openings make it a natural home for pictures that belong together: a then-and-now pair, two generations, a couple, or two moments from the same day. Because there is no card mount, your photographs fill each opening right to the edge of the silver, so the pictures themselves do the talking.

Each panel has a black back held in place with turn clips, so changing a photograph takes a moment: turn the clips, lift the back, set the print in place and close it up again. Folded shut, the two panels close together, which is handy for putting it away. Silverplate stays brightest with gentle care, so dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes that could wear the plating. We like to fill it with two photographs before wrapping it, so it makes a thoughtful gift that is ready to stand the moment it is opened.
