Heavy 6-lb cast brass with shell crest & original glass, c.1900
A richly cast antique Rococo brass table frame from the Gilded Era, featuring dramatic scrolling acanthus, pierced foliate corners, and an iconic shell crest. Exceptionally heavy at over 6 lbs, with deep relief casting and a warm, authentic patina. A true statement piece for any elevated interior.
Crafted in the late 19th–early 20th century, this heirloom-quality frame retains its original glass and antique backing board. The cast brass/bronze alloy shows elegant, age-earned oxidation — the kind of historic patina collectors actively seek.
Perfect displayed on a mantel, console, secretary desk, or in a styled vignette with antique books and portrait miniatures. This piece blends seamlessly into both classic French interiors and modern Parisian-inspired rooms.
