1951 VINTAGE Italian Portrait Frames Set of 2 Brass Filigree & Red Velvet 5x8”
1951 Vintage Italian Portrait Frames Set of 2 // Brass Filigree & Red Velvet 5x8”
Editor’s Note
Italian craftsmanship meets old-world glamour. Dating to 1951, this matching pair of ornate portrait frames features intricate brass-tone filigree, rich crimson velvet accents, and reproductions of historic European royal portraits. With sculptural scrollwork and a distinctly Hollywood Regency silhouette, these pieces capture the decorative elegance of mid-century Italian design.
A beautifully collected pair with a little aristocratic drama.
