19th-Century Antique Photo Frame – Ornate Openwork Metal & Green Velvet Description: Elegant 19th-century antique photograph frame, combining an elaborate openwork metal decoration with a dark green velvet-covered structure. The front is surrounded by a finely worked metal border featuring intricate foliate and scrolling motifs, creating an attractive lace-like effect. The richly ornamented metalwork contrasts beautifully with the deep green velvet background.
