Three sterling silver Art Nouveau photo frames dating to 1930–1940 from the USA, with large (14 × 11.5 cm, depth 1 cm), middle (8 × 6.3 cm), and round (5 cm diameter) frames, in good condition with minor wear and two small dents.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The three photo frames, made of sterling silver, are characterized by curved stands. The style recalls the Victorian era or Art Nouveau. They originate from the estate of my US mother-in-law, who was passionate about collecting sterling silver items.
The large frame is in very good condition, the middle one shows signs of wear, and the small one has two minor dents. All three frames still have the original backs and are probably also fitted with the original glass. Each frame bears a punch mark, as shown in the last three detail images. Experts can certainly assess their significance. I refrain from making any judgments.
