Picture frames and displays
Cast tabletop frames with weight behind the glass, in the shapes that stopped being made and the finishes that never went away.
The test of a tabletop frame is whether it stays where it is put. Hollow molded plastic does not: it walks along a shelf, it tips when a door closes, and it holds the photograph a half-inch proud of the glass. These are cast in polyresin with real glass at the front and enough mass in the base that the easel does its job on a shelf that gets knocked.
Shape is the variable most ranges ignore. Round, oval, octagon and ridged fronts all exist here alongside the rectangles, because a wall or a shelf of identical rectangles reads as filing rather than as a group of photographs. Most models display three ways: easel stand, wall hanging or flat on a tabletop.
On oval frames, the size in the specification is the size of the photograph, not the oval. An oval window crops the corners of a rectangular print, so order the print at the stated size and expect the corners to sit behind the mount.
