17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

1. Title: "A Glimpse of Elegance: The Green & Gold Compact - A Timeless Beauty from the Roaring Twenties" This exquisite Green & Gold Compact, dating back to the early 1920s, is a captivating example of the art deco and chinoiserie influences that dominated the fashion scene during the Roaring Twenties. The compact's circular design, adorned with intricate diamante (paste) decoration, exudes an air of opulence and sophistication. The compact's body is finished in a rich, verdant green hue, which is both soothing and vibrant. The gold cord and tassels add an element of luxury and elegance, making this compact a true treasure for any collector or admirer of vintage beauty objects. The compact's functional elements are just as impressive as its aesthetic appeal. It features a mirror for on-the-go touch-ups, a powder compartment to keep complexions looking flawless, and two lipstick holders to ensure that one's favorite shades were always within reach. The deco and chinoiserie influences are evident in the compact's design, with its intricate diamante (paste) decoration and the use of gold accents. The compact's oriental motifs and asymmetrical shapes are reminiscent of the Far East, adding to its allure and charm. This Green & Gold Compact is a testament to the rich history of applied arts and the innovation of the early 20th century. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate and inspire, making it a must-have for any collection of vintage objects or art deco enthusiasts. Circa 1920. Rights Managed. From Mary Evans Prints Online.
