# Phygital Picture Frames The LAGO Frame Showcases Blockchain-Verified NFTs in the Real World By Colin Smith | Published 2022-03-23 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lago-frame References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/lago-nft-frame-art-collection-display-interview/) & [lagoframe](https://www.lagoframe.com/) 'LAGO,' the new startup in the Web3 space that has already raised $4.2 million USD in a pre-seed round of funding, has announced the 'LAGO Frame.' The LAGO Frame is a [physical picture frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/layer-canvas) with [smart features and digital elements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/switchbot-ai-art-frame) working behind the frame. The picture frame itself connects to a companion application to verify the ownership of NFTs on the Blockchain before displaying these NFTs. Essentially, an image displayed on the LAGO Frame means the owner of the frame actually owns the NFT as well. With this product, LAGO hopes to legitimize the collection of NFTs in the real-world collector space, drawing in new community members who were previously unaware of the value of the Blockchain. The LAGO Frame is a square that measures 33" corner-to-corner. Customers can join the waitlist for the LAGO Frame at LAGO's website. The MSRP of the LAGO Frame is $9,000 USD.
