The frame ‘s dimensions of 35.4 cm x 27 cm correspond to the standard A4 size on the inside.

During the practical test, the pearway picture frame impressed in several aspects. The opening function proved to be smooth and stable, making the insertion and replacement of children’s drawings effortless. The shatterproof glass cover ensured a clear view of the artwork while protecting it from potential damage. Both wall and floor mounting were straightforward thanks to the mounting kit supplied. However, this is not absolutely necessary: Both mounting with standard nails and mounting on a frame rail were successfully confirmed in our practical test in both horizontal and vertical orientation.
For our test, we loaded the picture frame with the specified number of 100 A4 notes and set it up in all mounting options. In each case, the frame proved to be extremely stable and was able to fulfill the manufacturer’s promises in full.
