AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

No reserve price!

French Easel-Style Picture Frame in Beveled Glass and Bronze – 19th/20th Century.

Elegant and antique desk/table picture frame in easel style (tripod). The piece stands out for a thick plate of crystal glass with high-quality beveled (faceted) cutting, mounted on an articulated structure in gilded bronze (or brass). The top features a richly ornate pediment with cut and relief classical motifs in the Louis XVI style (ribbon bow and garlands). Base composed of a metal crosspiece resting on two spherical feet ("ball feet") and a rear movable stem with an adjustable spring mechanism to fix the photograph. European work, possibly French, from the Belle Époque / Napoleon III period (circa 1900).

Beveled crystal glass and copper alloy (gilded bronze/brass).

It is in generally good condition, with a minor flaw in one lower corner of the glass that is covered by the frame.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
