AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Spectacular and imposing frame made of solid wood, sculpted with plaster and gilded in fine gold. With a substantial front thickness, it presents a scenographic appearance, beautiful in both look and form, its main feature being the beautiful and very large relief decorations, meticulously handcrafted by master artisans of the era.

The inner part is formed by a zigzag-engraved edge that increases its depth and, finally, on the outermost part, an edge composed of convex semicircular points that enhance its appeal and originality. The lateral profile consists of stepped notches.

This is a rare frame, an antique masterpiece, a piece hard to find, with substantial dimensions. Exceptional for highlighting and displaying works of high prestige.

NB. Given that these are antique objects, there may be cracks, stains, small missing parts, signs of aging, etc. Please review the photos carefully.
