Mid 19th C. French gold leaf and applied ornament neoclassic fluted cove frame

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 two flat with cove bands, a delicate lamb’s tongue below a flat frieze with a ribbon and stick ornament and raised flat band. The fluted cove with acanthus leaves in the corners rises to a leaf and berry top edge with corner and center straps. Cove sides with overlapping coin motif at the back edge. Original gilding.
