Cherub Motif with Rich Drapery - Frame - Gilt bronze

Circa 1900 French Bronze Picture Frame - Cherub Motif with Rich Drapery An exquisite turn-of-the-century French bronze picture frame featuring a charming cherub figure reclining atop rich, draped garlands. This highly decorative piece embodies the romanticism and artistry typical of the Belle Époque period. Crafted in France around 1900, the frame showcases fine bronze workmanship with intricate details in the ornamental scrolls and curtain-like drapery. The patina, worn in places, reveals its age and adds to its authentic antique character. The playful cherub with delicately sculpted wings is a standout feature, ideal for collectors of 19th-century decorative arts. The frame measures 24 cm high x 18.4 cm wide x 20.5 cm deep (9.45 x 7.24 x 8.07 in), with an internal photo space of 13.5 cm high x 9.5 cm wide (5.31 x 3.74 in). Condition: Presents natural signs of age including patina, oxidation marks, and surface wear. One screw is missing and the support leg shows a documented bend (see photos). Despite these, the frame remains stable and visually striking. A beautiful and collectible display piece, perfect for period interiors, antique collections, or showcasing a cherished portrait. Note: Glass pane not included. I ensure prompt and careful shipping via Mondial Relay, offering the convenience of pick-up from your nearest location or home delivery via postal service. Following the sale, you will receive a message to coordinate shipment details. Don't miss the opportunity to adorn your home with these elegant pieces!
