"Who hasn’t experienced the unique feeling of holding a Polaroid in their hand and watching the image gradually reveal itself, or doesn’t remember the shiny photographic paper, the smell of the developing emulsion and the ninety seconds of anticipation waiting for the instant image to emerge? All photographs, but particularly Polaroids, reflect a desire to record that one special moment forever.
A few years ago a renaissance of the Polaroid photograph began and people began to take an interest in »retrography». This fascination stems from a deep yearning for old values, warmth and feel and the imperfect, real and familiar. It is no surprise that this longing for authenticity and permanence has emerged at a time of rapidly accelerating change, when digital images are practically ubiquitous.
Tradition is the foundation on which the POLABOY® is based, combined with cutting edge LED technology and consistent product design.
With the POLABOY® we capture personal moments which have irrevocably passed, thus immortalising the ethereal in timeless design. Snapshots become works of art to be rewarded with our deepest appreciation.
The frame for a small piece of eternity."
