Description from the seller

Antique wooden frame with gilded plaster – Baroque / Louis XV style – Excellent condition
Detailed Description
Type: premium rectangular frame with a deep 'grooved' profile, ideal for mirrors or period paintings (still lifes, portraits).

Materials: Solid wood frame with finely crafted pastiglia decorations (plaster and resin).
Finish: gold leaf gilding (or imitation gold) with a pleasant antique patina. The surface features a semi-gloss finish that enhances the reliefs and the play of light.

Edges: The inner profile features a 'fuseruola' technique (small spheres or repeated geometric motifs), while the outer edge is decorated with shell motifs and classical engravings.
