Description :
This magnificent 19th-century gilt bronze tabletop frame is a beautifully detailed decorative object that embodies the refinement and artistic exuberance of the late Victorian and Belle Époque periods. Crafted in solid gilt bronze, it features a richly ornamented silhouette with pierced scrollwork, delicate foliate motifs, and an impressive cherub mask crowning the top. The frame stands elegantly on four sculpted feet, each shaped with scrolling volutes that enhance the overall sense of movement and sophistication.
The sides display finely cast openwork elements, adding lightness to the heavy bronze structure and creating a striking interplay of depth and shadow. At the back, the original stand with its refined shape confirms the quality of the workmanship and allows the frame to sit gracefully on a console, secrétaire, or dressing table.
The gilding shows natural age patina that enriches the surface with warmth and authenticity. Perfect for displaying a cherished portrait, miniature, or artwork, this frame adds an unmistakable touch of French or European classical luxury to any interior. A refined collector’s piece that blends sculptural beauty with timeless decorative charm.
