The photographs you print deserve more than a frame that fades into the background. They deserve something that holds attention.

Vintage-style print and hand-applied gold foil draw from Mughal and Persian design traditions, inspired by the intricate patterns once seen on palace walls and silk textiles. When you place your photograph inside it, the frame becomes part of the memory itself.

  • Fits a 5 x 7 inch landscape or portrait photo (approx. 23 x 28 x 2.5cm full frame)
  • Hand-applied gold foiling
  • Vintage-style print inspired by Mughal and Persian motifs

Not Just Decor. A Conversation Starter.

This stunning handmade photo frame combines the art of low pixel prints for a touch of vintage charm with intricate foiling for a rustic gold finish that beautifully captures the light. It’s the perfect way to showcase your cherished memories while adding warmth, elegance, and a touch of regal sophistication to your home.

The design of this frame is deeply rooted in history, inspired by the rich fusion of Persian and Indian artistry that dates back to the 16th century. When the Mughal Empire brought Persian art and culture to India, it led to the creation of stunning motifs that adorned royal palaces and luxurious textiles.

Great for cultural enthusiasts and thoughtful gift-givers, this unique frame is more than just a way to display memories; it's a way to share a story and bring happiness into any space.

Handcrafted & Supports Craftsmanship

Rakesh and his team of artisans draw inspiration from both their traditional roots and contemporary decor, creating functional pieces that also serve as stunning works of art. Based in the art-rich city of New Delhi, they are dedicated to preserving their craft in the face of mass-produced goods and a declining appreciation for handmade artistry. Each creation reflects their meticulous precision and patience, with resourcefulness woven into the design, ensuring every piece is a unique expression of creativity for your home.

“We use a low pixel print technique to create a distinct vintage look and enrich the gold, adding unique character and sophistication” - Rakesh, maker.

Luxury Looks. Everyday Durability.

Gold foiling, once reserved for royal palaces and sacred art, transforms simple surfaces into gleaming works of art. Every delicate layer catches the light, adding a sense of richness and refined beauty.

Skilled artisans pair this luxurious technique with high-quality MDF - a material chosen for its smooth texture and strength - to create décor pieces that feel both luxurious and accessible. The result? Striking designs that bring a subtle glow and sophisticated charm to any room, without the royal price tag.

Perfect for those who crave a touch of grandeur in everyday life.

Durable & Easy to Clean

• Dust with a soft, dry cloth.
• Keep away from moisture and direct sunlight to protect the foil finish.
• To fit your photo, lift out the back panel, slide your picture in and replace the back.
• Do not use damp cloths or abrasive cleaners on the foil surface.

FAQs

How is the rustic gold finish achieved?
Applied by hand by skilled artisans. The ‘rustic’ quality is intentional - it has a warm, aged character rather than the hard shine of mass-produced metallic finishes. It catches light differently across the frame’s surface, giving it more depth.
Can I put a smaller photo in it with a mount?
Yes, if you have your own card mount, you can easily fit a smaller photo (like a 4x6) inside the 5x7 window.
I'm not South Asian - is it okay to buy or gift these pieces?

Honestly, yes - whether that's for yourself or someone you care about.

Every item at ALORAA comes with a real story: who made it, where, using skills passed down through generations. When you bring one of these into your home or give one to someone you love, you're not just acquiring an object. You're sharing that story. That's not appropriation - it's how craft traditions survive.

The distinction that matters isn't your background. It's whether you're engaging with the culture or just borrowing the aesthetic without the story. Knowing the provenance, buying from a brand built to support the makers, choosing something with meaning attached - that's appreciation.

Are your materials sustainably sourced?

Wherever possible, yes. We prioritise materials that are responsibly harvested, recycled, or upcycled. Each product page shares details about what's used in that piece.

Why ALORAA?

Because beautiful things shouldn't come at someone else's expense. Every piece should carry respect - for the maker, the materials, and for you.

We pay fair wages without compromise and share the real stories behind our craft. That's how we create decor worth owning - and keeping.

Do you offer gift notes and wrapping?

We offer beautiful gift wrapping for just £4 and complimentary handwritten notes to make your gift even more special.

Just choose the gift option at checkout or drop us an email.

Do you offer trade or wholesale pricing?

Absolutely. We love working with interior designers, stylists and businesses. Email us at hello@aloraa.co.uk to chat about trade partnerships or bulk orders.
