Neo Egyptian Two Tone Solid Mahogany & Rosewood Picture / Mirror Frames
About the Item
Two (of four) designed and handmade frames by Dana Nicholson at Altura Studio in New York. Solid Mahogany and rosewood assembled in a heavy torsion box method. Custom cast brass fittings for hanging and for supporting the removable mahogany art backing. Designed for ease of changing artwork. Fittings adapt to various artwork thicknesses. The frames are imposing and impressive but lend an unexpected support to art work and especially photography. The proportions are based on Egyptian temple pylon dimensions and completed with torus moldings and a Cavetto Cornice. The dental molding is an adaptation from later Greek and Roman cornices. The two end dentals are drilled to receive custom horizonal terrets and or silk cord with tassels for an opulent celebratory finish.

Treated with a rich tobacco brown patina and buffed with wax for an authentic, and historical bronze finish. Silver leaf has been applied to the raised portion of the body plate to accentuate the Celtic like design pattern. A perfect understory for that rare collector batman comic...Category
