Taru means tree in Sanskrit (India) — a word chosen to honour the material and message behind this piece.
Just like the tree it’s named after, this frame carries a quiet strength, natural beauty, and a story of giving back. It’s a small way to connect something personal — a photo, a moment — with something lasting. These stylish standing frames have a chunky wood design, made from sustainable mango wood. The combination of natural wood and see-through real glass creates a clean look that really brings attention to the image inside. Each frame is handmade, crafted with care to highlight the natural grain and feel of the mango wood. This frame has a clever double-glass construction. The glass panels slides out, allowing to easily position a photo, artwork, or keepsake before sliding it back into place. The clear glass on both sides lets the image appear as if it’s floating, giving it a light, open feel from any angle. Mango wood pieces are made from trees that are first grown for their fruit and harvested over many years. Once the trees stop bearing fruit, they are cut and used for wood — and new trees are planted in their place. This sustainable process helps reduce waste and provides farmers with an additional source of income, supporting both the environment and local communities. Each frame is finished by hand, making them full of character. The handmade process is not rushed — it’s thoughtful, intentional, and a reminder that beautiful things can still be made with care.
