Invented to decorate paintings, ancestral portraits and exquisite embroidery, frames have progressed since then to becoming one of the most used interior design items with the advent of photography. With the resulting volumes of pictures people needed to put on show led to many innovative people making Photo Frame on a large scale.
Today the manufacture of frames is big business globally and one would need to travel far to find a home without any frames in it. Companies are now producing well made wood, metal, plastic or aluminum frames in all sizes and shapes from the traditional to special occasion shapes such as hearts for wedding photographs.
Makers of china and porcelain wares have recognized that their product can cater to a certain market and now create specialty frames beautifully embellish with specific designs for exceptional occasions. The shops are flooded with mountains of designs and options and one may need to be focused and have a clear idea of what one is looking for when shopping for a frame.
Firstly identify where the picture will be set, the space available, interior theme design and lighting around it. Bright sun or artificial light can damage and cause even non-reflective glass to shimmer.
Often one has a special photo that should be professionally framed. Framing outlets today are staffed with people who have the technical knowledge and artistic ability to guide one in choosing an appropriate frame and mounting boards to complement the photograph.
Any framed photo in a room will tend to be a focal point and draw one's eye repeatedly whenever a person enters the room. When buying a ready made frame one would want to be sure that it is sturdy and well made. An inferior metal product can tarnish and a flimsy, badly made wooden frame may not stand up to day to day wear and tear.
Many companies nowadays are using websites to enable potential customers to shop online which has brought a new dimension to the framing industry. The picture to be framed can be scanned into the computer and one is then able to drop in various frames to get a visual idea of what it would look like.
A Photo Frame holds a moment of a person's pictorial history and as such is important to the family as a whole and needs to be protected for posterity.
