MOTHER OF PEARL FRAME:

This beautiful teal green photo frame is hand crafted from resin and uniquely shaped mother of pearl tiles. Fill it with your favourite  6×4 inch photo or share it with a loved one for a thoughtful birthday, new home, or wedding gift.

Price: £24

Dimensions:

This frame has a glass window to display and protect the photograph, and a stand for portrait or landscape orientation on flat surfaces.

The frames are made entirely by hand using traditional skills handed down from one generation to the next. The front is crafted from individual mother of pearl tiles, pieced together to create the unique design. The structure of the frame is crafted from mango wood. Mango trees have an incredibly long life, but eventually stop bearing fruit and are replaced by younger trees. As India produces, by far, the most mangos in the world, this results in a huge industry using one of the most sustainable woods known to man.

Due to the handmade nature of these products each one is unique, but loveliness comes as standard.
