Antique Art Nouveau Cast Iron Easel Frame Gold Gilt Cherubs Putti Angels

This exquisite antique cast iron easel frame features a stunningly detailed Art Nouveau design, highlighted by two enchanting cherubs (putti) nestled among swirling acanthus leaves and floral scrolls. The frame is finished in a rich, antique gold gilt that beautifully accentuates the depth of the casting, giving it a warm, regal presence. Its openwork border and ornate crest create an airy yet substantial feel, perfect for adding a touch of romance to a vanity, mantel, or bedside table. The frame retains its original hinged easel stand, which is both decorative and functional, allowing for stable display. The back is stamped with the mold number, a mark of its turn-of-the-century craftsmanship. Currently fitted with a striped fabric insert, it is ready to showcase your favorite photograph or small mirror. Circa 1895 – 1915 (Art Nouveau / Late Victorian Era).

VINTAGE & ANTIQUE
Vintage and antique items are pre-owned and aged goods. In most cases, we do not clean or polish any items that come into our shop. Once you remove an item's traces of age and patina it's not something you can reverse, so we leave those activities up to the buyer. We do not disassemble found art from their frames unless it is necessary to differentiate a print from an original piece of art. Vintage prints purchased from this shop could originate from any print media (e.g., magazines, books, photographs, art prints, etc.). We try our best to describe items accurately and disclose any and all flaws and imperfections. Please refer to pictures as a visual description. We want to make sure you are happy with your purchase so, please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have prior to checkout.
