The silver is very finely embossed (see pics).
The frame has a polished wooden back and pointed strut enabling landscape or portrait
photographs to be displayed, complete with a genuine moire watered silk lining.
Often little or no regard is given to the quality of the back that supports the silver,
however some makers use cardboard backs covered by velvet
which looks presentable when new, but velvet and silver polish do not mix
and in time the back will perish and look tatty,
soon after the silver will be reduced to its scrap value.
The finest purity unalloyed 999 silver has a depth of colour
not found on lower grade 925 silver items.
Brand new, never used so no dings, dents or scratches,
a beautiful quality item.
