Description from the seller
Antique Oval Decorative Frame with Rocaille Crest – Baroque/Rococo Style
Elegant antique oval frame with a highly decorative character, featuring rich vegetal ornamentation, scrolls and rocaille motifs, enhanced by a spectacular central upper crest decorated with leaves, scrolls and floral elements.
The frame is finished in beautiful antique gold and bronze-gold tones, with a warm aged patina that enhances the numerous carved and moulded details. The outer band is richly decorated with elaborate scrollwork, foliage and small floral motifs, while the inner edge features a continuous ornamental decoration.
The particularly impressive upper crest gives the frame a striking and theatrical appearance. Its flowing and asymmetrical forms, combined with scrolling foliage and floral elements, recall the Baroque and Rococo decorative tradition, particularly the Louis XV taste.
The frame can be used to display a painting, print, engraving, photograph or mirror, or simply as an important decorative element in a classical, elegant or eclectic interior.
