Frame - Horn - Italian design

Vintage square frame from the 1970s in natural horn, Italian mid-century design. This is a refined example of high Italian artistic craftsmanship, featuring a bold geometric motif created entirely with an inlay of tiles in precious natural horn, polished to reveal a fascinating chromatic contrast between black and ivory tones; a design piece ideal for enhancing interiors in the mid-century modern or Hollywood Regency styles. In overall good vintage condition with a beautiful natural patina. As typical for this type of antique item made from organic material, there are two natural cracks at the corners, due to the horn settling over time; these marks do not affect the solidity of the structure and testify to the piece’s authenticity and age. No brand or signature on the back, which has no glass in the photo area and no backrest/stand. Dimensions: cm 28 x 28 x 2 - inner light-space dimensions (photo area) cm 9.5 x 9.5.
