A beautifully aged antique giltwood frame featuring an elegant repeating shell and swag motif—a hallmark of late century design and craftsmanship. The raised relief carving gives it wonderful depth and texture, while the time-softened gilding adds warmth and authenticity.
The frame’s ornamentation, with its alternating shell and foliate garlands, evokes the Neoclassical and Louis XVI styles, yet its hand-tooled finish lends it an approachable, slightly rustic charm that fits equally well in English Regency, French Provincial, or Hollywood Regency interiors.
Ideal for artwork, mirrors, or as a standalone architectural accent, this piece brings a touch of Old World luxury to any space.

Outer frame: 19” H × 17” W x 1.75" D
