Description from the seller

Exclusive ebony wood frame, featuring refined decoration with a gilded Greek key motif running along the inner and side edges.
The refined profile presents a molded work with a perimetral engraving and an inner band adorned with gold bead filigree, elements that provide depth and decorative richness to the whole.
The dark surface creates a suggestive and striking contrast with the gilding, highlighting the geometric Greek-key design.

The overall piece yields a frame with strong aesthetic impact, prized by master craftsmen of bygone eras. Very well finished in detail, it presents optimal dimensions for displaying prestigious artworks in galleries or refined and elegant settings.

It will be carefully shipped, properly packaged and insured.
