Thin Oblong Metal Photo Frame with Plated Finish - Brass

This thin oblong photo frame keeps things beautifully simple: a slim metal border with a shiny brass plated finish around a single rectangular window. It comes in two sizes, one for a 6 x 4in print and one for a 7 x 5in print, so you can choose the frame that suits the photograph you have in mind. There is no mount, so your picture sits edge to edge inside the narrow brass border and the image does all the talking. The warm brass tone sits comfortably in pale and dark interiors alike, and the clean rectangular shape lets a family portrait, a holiday view or a favourite snapshot take centre stage.

Because it stands on a strut at the back, the frame is freestanding and needs no wall, nails or hooks. It sits happily on a mantelpiece, a bookshelf, a sideboard or a bedside table, and its slim profile takes up very little room. We like the 6 x 4in size for a bedside table or a busy shelf, while the 7 x 5in size gives a favourite photograph a little more presence on a mantelpiece or hall table. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming gift: slip in a picture of friends, family or a happy day together and it is ready to put out on moving day.

The frame is made from metal alloy with a brass plated finish, and it holds one photograph in its rectangular window. To keep the shine at its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes, which can wear a plated surface over time. A slightly damp cloth lifts fingerprints, followed by a dry one. For a neat display, group both sizes together on a shelf, or pair the brass border with black and white photographs for a crisp contrast that suits almost any room.
