925 Silver Photo Frame Berlin — 13×18 cm, wide bezel, engravable

13 × 18 cm in the wide Berlin frame: This is the frame for the picture that is meant to last. A broadly curved strip of 925 sterling silver, highly polished, without any motif — the effect comes solely from the surface, curvature, and light.

A frame that will pass down to the next generation

Silver frames are heirlooms. This is not a marketing slogan, but an observation: A solid silver frame outlasts the photos that are placed in it one after another — and that is precisely its value. Because the Berlin frame bears no motif, it is not tied to any occasion or fashion. It accommodates a wedding picture just as well as a photo of grandchildren fifty years later.

The 13 × 18 format is the most common size for portrait and family photos — so the frame remains usable even when the picture changes.

Material and Workmanship

925 sterling silver, highly polished, with a hallmark as proof of silver content. Of all the frames in our selection, this one has the highest material usage: large surface, wide frame, no cutouts. Manufactured by Zaramella Argenti in Italy, a family business since 1948.

Engraving and SilverVerse Card

The wide frame offers the most generous engraving surface in the assortment — enough for names, dates, and a short line. We do engravings upon request — please contact us before ordering so we can discuss placement and font size together.

Upon request, we include a personalized SilverVerse card in photo format — individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge, also available without engraving.

What occasions is the large Berlin frame suitable for?

For a wedding as a gift that lasts beyond the day. For a silver wedding anniversary and round anniversaries, where an engraving with a date commemorates the occasion. And wherever several people chip in to give a single, quality piece. The smaller version in 10 × 15 cm format can be found here.

Frequently Asked Questions

What photo size fits in?

A photo in 13 × 18 cm format.

Why is it the most expensive frame of this size?

A wide frame plus a large format result in the highest silver usage. Other frames of the same picture format are built narrower.

Does such a large smooth surface tarnish faster?

Not faster, but more visibly — on a polished surface, a film is more noticeable than in a decorative pattern. A soft silver polishing cloth is sufficient.

Does silver tarnish?

Sterling silver reacts with air and darkens over time. A soft silver polishing cloth removes the film. How best to care for children's silver is explained in our care guide.
