Description from the seller

Pair of cornucopia frames made of cast bronze, dating from the late 19th to early 20th century, in the Louis XV style. Each frame features an exuberant ornamental structure, with rocaille motifs, vegetal scrolls, flowers, and asymmetrical volutes, typical of French Rococo taste.

One of the frames has a vertical rectangular shape, while the other is oval, both designed to hold portraits, miniatures, or devotional images. The bronze work displays precise and detailed casting, with an aged patina that enhances the reliefs and adds a historical character.

These pieces were conceived as decorative wall or tabletop elements, reflecting the bourgeois refinement of the era, where gilded or patinated bronze was used to reproduce the courtly luxury of the 18th century. Their condition and ornamental richness make them valuable objects for collectors of decorative arts, historicist furniture, or classical settings.

Certified shipping and good packaging.
