About the Item

Hallmarked in Birmingham in 1916, this stylish antique sterling silver photograph frame was made by Henry Clifford Davis during the early years of the George V period. The oval aperture is set within a softly contoured rectangular border, edged with subtle reed detailing. The design is restrained and formal, offering a clean presentation suitable for a range of interior settings. The back is fitted in wood with its original easel support, allowing the frame to stand upright. The proportions are balanced and well-scaled, with an overall height of 9.5 inches and an aperture measuring 7.5 by 5 inches—ideal for a portrait photograph. Frames of this period often reflect the transition from late Edwardian ornamentation to a more simplified interwar aesthetic. This example sits comfortably within that lineage, showing quality in both construction and finish. Dimensions: Frame: H 9.5 in. (24 cm) × W 7 in. (18 cm) Aperture: H 7.5 in. (19 cm) × W 5 in. (12.5 cm)
