A layered, petal-shaped border gives the Padma Picture Frames their distinctive floral silhouette. Handmade in India from ethically sourced bone with resin and glass, the frames combine soft ivory tones with subtle variations in the natural material. Each holds a 4 × 4 inch photograph within a circular surround, bringing gentle curves to a timber sideboard or a shelf of books. Part of Blackwood Living’s Plantation Collection, the set of two sits comfortably among woven textures, aged brass and collected keepsakes.

Frequent Queries
What size photographs do the frames hold?
Each frame suits a 4 × 4 inch photograph, approximately 102 × 102mm. The overall frame diameter is 165mm, and the circular opening crops the corners of the photograph from view.
Will both frames look exactly alike?
Natural bone can vary slightly in tone and texture, while the handmade construction may produce small differences in the detailing. These variations are part of the material and making process.
How should I care for the frames?
Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Clean the glass carefully with a lightly dampened cloth, keeping moisture away from the surrounding bone and resin. Avoid abrasive cleaners, prolonged direct sunlight and damp conditions.
