AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rectangular antique wooden frame, with an inner stepped molding and a wide exterior frieze decorated with raised vegetal and floral motifs. It features a finish in reddish-brown, browns and gold tones, with significant wear and losses of polychromy that reveal the background and impart a very distinctive patina.
Due to its construction, decoration and rear mounting system, it is compatible with a historicist frame from the late 19th century, probably made in a craft workshop. The exterior decoration seems to combine carving with applied raised relief elements. 19th-century frames made of wood, stucco, bole and gold leaf are a well-documented typology.
Material: Wood, stucco/decorative paste and gilded polychromy.
Technique: Carving, assembly and raised relief decoration, with polychromy and gilding.
Era: Late 19th century, approximately 1880–1910.
Origin: France.
Style: Historicist, with Baroque/Rococo inspiration.
Measurements: 31 × 19 × 3 cm.
Height: 19 cm.
Weight: 280 grams.
Condition: Retains its structure, though shows significant wear of polychromy and gilding, small cracks and finish losses typical of its age. No glass.

Shipping: It is shipped by InPost, UPS or Correos, depending on the destination country.
