AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful mourning frame, obituary list.
With a photo of a young woman and fitted with a wig,
in the shape of a twig.
The frame around it is made of gold-colored metal.
The glass is spherical.
The back of the wooden frame is attached to the metal strip itself.
by means of iron wire, which ends in a hanging loop.
It is probably the wig from around 1900–1920.
I cannot say with certainty whether it is original in this way.
but it is certainly an eye-catcher and a conversation piece.
The list (numbered FR 28 918 BIS and originating from Italy)
has the following dimension: height 53 cm
Width 35 cm and depth (with the bulging glass) is 5.2 cm.
The weight is 1,345 g, weighed without packaging.
This parcel is carefully packed and shipped via POST NL.
