Late 19th C.American, gold leaf, applied ornament frame with a reeded top

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 row of beads at the sight edge a band of reeds, a sand panel and a row of elongated beads. The convex profile rises with palmettes and intervening flowers to the reeded top edge with corner straps. Cove sides with a plain flat and cove at the back edge. Original gilding. Missing liner.
