Description A SUPERB ANTIQUE FRENCH ART DECO CARVED WOODEN PICTURE FRAME ~ with a fabulous, sleek carved wing aesthetic to top ~ ... a fabulous French frame with an incredible carved border, with a myriad of Egyptian Art Deco style geometric & foliate motifs to frieze ~ beautifully stepped & bevelled throughout, chamfered into sight, with an exquisite grain & patina, probably walnut & so great to see a maker mark & the date of making, dated exactly to 1933 verso making this Gallic frame, patently unique! Measuring approximately  23 & 3/4 "  by  18 & 7/8"  (External) ~  With a  rebate  (to fit a picture) of   16 & 1/2 "   by  14 & 1/8"   (Internal) ~ Or, in centimetres  42cm  by  36cm  ~ Sight size is  15 & 3/4"  by 13 & 3/8" ~ ... dating (NOT at a guess!) but! specifically to 1933, do I need to say circa or not, I don't think so with this one ~ ... this is a stunning frame,  typically French in design & beautifully carved it has a fabulously carved frieze with an amazing central crown section, reminds me in some ways of the 1930s Chrysler emblem with its outstretched wing-type logo, so sleek, signifying speed & a classic Art Deco shape, amazing actually that they have lasted so long & are completely intact ~ ... with a plethora of Art Deco repeating motifs throughout, carved stripes & hieroglyphics mingling with semi-circular sun-type shapes, there is more than a nod to Egyptian Art Deco influences here, just as in The Chrysler Building itself,  this frame would not look out of place in The Egyptian House in Penzance in Cornwall! ... not entirely sure of the wood type, I would say probably a rich, dense walnut as there are some unusual walnut-type Knots here & there throughout the border which can be seen in several areas of the frieze ~ ... the border of this frame rises to the centre frieze & we have an angled sight edge which has the effect of drawing your eye into the picture, the outer edge is ribbed & stepped & which also creates a beautiful contrast of the wood grain, each element catching the light in a different way ~such an elegant mount ~  ... the quality of the grain here is exquisite &  the whole thing has an amazing tactile patina,  it's a frame that feels great to handle & hold ~  this is an exceptionally well-made frame,  entirely constructed by hand it's also  a frame that, as well as its 1930s decorative assets also has  a wonderful feeling of hand-built Arts & Crafts style  ~ ...  you only find frames like this in France! ... this frame will suit a special picture OR perhaps an image of a loved one; it is certainly a frame to grace any wall ~ Thank you for looking ~ If you have any questions please ask ~   Condition   In Excellent  condition for its age; with the odd age commensurate minor ding here & there but in truth nothing particularly noteworthy ~  Age commensurate wear ~ With NO major damages OR losses ~

gilded frames  OR  glamorous  Art-Deco  pieces  OR  incredible carved  Arts & Crafts  one-offs ~  Finding the frames is the tricky bit, I wear a lot of tyre tread & shoe leather on my travels & I reject 99% of the frames that I see based on design  OR  condition, not to mention price ~ Many of the 'high-end' Interiors glossy magazines  World of Interiors  /  Architectural Digest / Elle Decoration  et al, have been promoting antique frame ‘feature-walls’ for many years now has been a popular decorator's trend, after all, " Without the right frame, Art is lost " ~  *A group of frames on a wall can be a great conversation starter & so we aim to bring as many quirky, top-notch antique & repro frames onto  eBay  at any one time to present plenty of options ~    ** All of our antique frames will  have some form of  age commensurate wear , most of our frames are not reproductions & so there will be slight imperfections e.g., the odd ding  OR  light scratch etc, after all, this is the very essence of owning an antique frame ~ Please, always refer to the detailed photos, they are an accurate reflection of the antique condition ~   *** Each frame has been carefully  stripped down  of its backing &  cleaned using professional materials  - The back of the frame is then meticulously tidied of any loose impediments, nails, splinters, dust, glass  OR  any other abrasions ~ Where necessary, the border is then treated with a high-quality bees-wax and buffed vigorously, giving the wood a fresh lustre and sheen leaving you the customer with what is effectively a moderately refurbished frame ~ Some frames, depending on size, may be available with old glass & a backing so please enquire about this  before  we ship ~   *** We can combine shipping whenever possible, we are happy to combine shipping for multiple frames, simply buy your frames & then once done, request a new shipping quote, alternatively, pay for your frames including the shipping & we will give a full refund via eBay once your frames are wrapped, weighed & measured ~   *** New stock is listed every week ~   *** Any easels/props used in the photos are not included in the sale ~  *** Rebate/Rabbet
