Description
This brass and glass photo frame holds your picture between two clear panes, so it seems to float within a slim brass edge. It is sized for a 7 x 5in print, and because the glass is clear right to the frame, a smaller photograph or a postcard sits just as well with open space around it. Propped up, it stands 18cm tall and 14.5cm across, and it reaches 5.5cm deep from front to back with its stand opened out. The brass has a warm, gently aged tone with soft variation along the crossbar at the back, which suits an old family photograph as much as a recent snap.
As a freestanding frame it needs no wall and no nails, so it settles happily on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a desk or a bookshelf. The see-through design lets whatever sits behind it show through, which keeps a small surface feeling light rather than crowded. It makes a thoughtful present for someone who treasures a favourite picture, and it looks as much at home in a hallway or living room as it does on a study desk.
The two panes are hinged along one side, so the frame opens like a book: lay your photo on the back pane, close the front over it, and the glass holds it flat. A slim brass wire stand folds out behind to rest the frame at a gentle lean, and at 0.36KG it has a pleasing weight in the hand. To keep the glass bright, wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away, then dust the brass with a soft dry cloth. We like it beside a vase of flowers or a candle on a shelf, where the brass catches the light, and it is a lovely way to give a printed photograph as a gift in its own right.
