Late 19th C. American gold lead and applied ornament Barbizon 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 a beveled liner surrounded by a gadrooned band and a flat frieze. Bold acanthus leaves curve up between fluted shields on the outer frame with large extended acanthus leaf corners. Cove sides with a floral design on the back edge. Gold leaf and bronzed finish.
