What size is a 20 x 25 cm frame?
In the UK, it holds a 20 × 25 cm picture. The outside is bigger by the moulding width, for example about 27 × 32 cm with a 35 mm moulding.
Is 20 x 25 cm the same as 10 x 8 inches?
Nearly, but not exactly. 10 x 8 inches is 20.3 × 25.4 cm, a few millimetres bigger. In the UK we make this frame at 20 × 25 cm, and in the US at 10 x 8 inches. If your print is in exact inches, measure it, and choose made to measure if it's larger than 20 × 25 cm.
What fits in a 20 x 25 cm frame?
A 20 × 25 cm picture fits exactly. With a mount, 6x4, 7x5 and 8x6 photos all sit with an even border: about 4.9 cm, 3.6 cm and 2.4 cm all round.
