Frame and Mount Materials
The frame is glazed with anti-glare styrene, which reduces the damaging effects of UV light, helping to protect your photograph over time. The mount is produced from acid-free mount card, essential for archival preservation — it won’t yellow or degrade over time, ensuring your photograph remains in pristine condition. The university name is foil-printed directly onto the mount, adding a refined, professional finish that marks this as a keepsake befitting a SOAS graduate. The mount colour has been carefully selected to complement the university’s own colours, creating a cohesive and considered presentation.

This graduation photo frame is available in three distinctive moulding styles, allowing you to select the finish that best suits the graduate’s taste and home décor:
-
Black and Gold — a timeless and elegant combination that adds a formal, classic touch
-
Teak and Gold — a warm, rich finish that brings a natural sophistication to any room
-
Contemporary — a clean, modern style for those who prefer a sleeker, understated look
About SOAS University of London
SOAS University of London holds a uniquely prestigious position in the academic world — it is the only higher education institution in Europe dedicated entirely to the study of Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Founded in 1916 as the School of Oriental Studies, it received its royal charter on 5 June 1916, with its formal inauguration performed by King George V in February 1917. Situated in the heart of Bloomsbury in central London, SOAS has built a global reputation over more than a century, attracting students and scholars from across the world. Its alumni include figures of extraordinary distinction — among them David Lammy, who went on to become UK Foreign Secretary; Paul Robeson, the celebrated American singer and civil rights activist; Maro Itoje, England and Lions rugby international; and broadcaster Zeinab Badawi. With a global alumni community of nearly 95,000, a SOAS degree carries genuine international weight.
A Gift Worth Giving
This photo frame makes a fantastic companion to the graduate’s matching framed certificate — the two displayed together create a wonderful tribute to their years of hard work and dedication. It also makes a truly thoughtful gift idea: perhaps a present from parents or other family members to mark the occasion, or a way for wider family and friends to gift the graduate something meaningful to sit alongside their framed certificate. Whether giving or receiving, it is a lasting reminder of an exceptional accomplishment.
