A beautiful and ornate antique Belle Époque French photo' frame, thick bevelled crystal glass sitting on an ornate gilt metal frame on ball feet under a ribbon & laurel crest. This is a stunning piece in it's own right but as a mount for a treasured photograph it is exceptional. This frame captures the refined aesthetic of France's golden age. Originally designed to showcase precious cabinet photographs and studio portraits, it embodies the sophisticated style that made French decorative arts world-renowned.
 
The frame stands 21cm tall, the glass 17 x 11cm and 16 x 10cm inside the bevel.
 
One minor chip to the rear of the top left of the glass, otherwise in excellent condition.
