AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An exemplary masterpiece of Italian ebony wood craftsmanship, characterized by an imposing foliate decoration and a refined period gilding.

Fascinating and imposing rectangular wooden frame with rich plaster decorations (pastiglia) in floral and foliate relief, dating from the late 19th century (late Victorian era).

The piece stands out for its generous external dimensions (102 x 57 cm), making it ideal both for framing large-scale canvases and for being transformed into a luxurious decorative wall mirror for classic or modern interiors (creating a sophisticated contrast).

The gilded finish presents a beautiful patina of age, with the red bole subtly emerging in some spots, a detail that enhances its charm and certifies its authenticity. The back structure shows the era's typical workmanship, with a solid wooden core.

The piece appears in good overall condition. Sound and robust construction.
There are the normal, light signs of wear, small cracks or minor losses on the gilding and on the plaster parts, which do not compromise its aesthetics.

The packaging will be carried out professionally using the most suitable materials to prevent any damage during transport.

Happy bidding to all from Magazzino 77
