Splendid and refined period rectangular frame, entirely made of wood and gilded stucco, dating from the late 19th century. This piece perfectly embodies the elegance of Neoclassical and Empire style, ideal for enhancing antique paintings, fine prints, or to be transformed into an exclusive character mirror.
