AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An antique large porthole frame carved in wood and plaster.
Theatrical, beautiful in appearance and form, its main feature is the large raised decorations and the depth created by the three-tiered shaping.
In the outermost part, delightful interwoven decorations, alternating with spherical elements, appear prestigious and refined.
The frontal area stands majestically with the large floral and foliate volute decoration; they create a splendid cascading interweaving of flowers along the entire frame, of great charm and appeal.
The innermost area is very beautiful, characterized by a richly incised, dotted border.
It presents itself as imposing, with a substantial front thickness of 8 cm.

The frame is antique; the joints at the back show that it was handmade, probably dating from the 1800s and early 1900s. Nevertheless, it is in good condition.

This frame is a true masterpiece by the master artisans of bygone eras. Meticulously crafted in its details and richly covered with plaster, it presents itself in optimal dimensions for displaying one's own paintings and portraits.
