Photo frame obl, mahogany

Carved from mahogany by an Italian heritage workshop in a small village near Bergamo, this photo frame carries the stillness of craftsmanship passed through generations.

It is a keeper of fragments, a photograph, a pressed flower from a wedding bouquet, a ticket stub from a first date, a programme folded and carried home after opening night. Within its proportions, 13 × 18 cm, the private becomes visible, the fleeting is held.

Made from beautiful mahogany, the picture frame can be placed on a desk, by the bed, or against the wall on a shelf, and it lends the room a kind of resonance. A frame is never only a frame; it is a boundary that gathers memory and gives it permanence.
