Early 19th C. French empire frame, gold leaf and applied ornament

Available from Atelier Richard Boerth when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

This frame has a cove and flat at the sight edge rising in a broad cove to a step and flat top. The prominent corner ornament has leaves scrolling out from an acanthus center leaf. The yellow ocher sides drop back at a slight inward angle. Original gilding
