Early 19th C. American gold leaf and applied ornament Louis XV style 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 liner with a cove sight edge with a leaf tip ornament and a narrow cove. The outer frame has a flattened ogee profile with corner elements containing curling leaves and C- scrolls with leaves and flowers extending out to the centers with fanned leaf shapes. The convex top edges are swept between the corners and centers with scrolling ends. Yellow ocher cove sides. Original gilding.
