English Art Nouveau Brass Portrait Easel Picture Frame c1920
About the Item
Large Art Nouveau easel portrait picture frame of fine pressed brass. New ply backing with original camel velvet. Hand and machine made factory production, probably English, from the early 20th century.
This highly decorative frame is large enough to hold a cocktail menu or a large format portrait.
The brass ribbon pattern is finely detailed and crisp, with signs of wear that add to its charm. It has a fine wax polish which will allow the brass to age gracefully, or you can polish further, as you wish. The frame has a nicely angled easel back and the backing board is loosely fitting so that a picture, glass and/or a menu can be slid into place without damage. This piece has been well used. It's sold without glass.
We can see this frame doing a fine job presenting a cocktail menu at a bar, or joining other frames in a presentation of family portraits, old or new. View the images to see a standard size champagne bottle in the images for scale - this is a large presentation frame.
The original marked and scuffed velvet has been re-affixed to a new backing board. We have re-adhered the velvet to the board using upholsterer's fabric adhesive.
