Multi-Estate Spring 2026 Auction
Lot 112:
Description
C-19125
Substantial antique wood picture frame featuring a wide, deeply coved molding with softly rounded inner and outer edges. The warm honey-brown finish highlights visible grain patterns and subtle knots, suggesting solid pine or similar softwood construction. The broad profile gives the frame architectural presence, making it well-suited for portraits, folk art, or landscape paintings of modest scale. Mitered corners are cleanly joined, and the inner rabbet retains its original depth for glazing and backing.
The surface shows a hand-rubbed patina with natural tonal variation across the rails, particularly along the lower edge where grain figure is more pronounced. The profile’s simple curvature and lack of applied ornament align with late 19th to early 20th century utilitarian framing—form following function with quiet, honest craftsmanship.
Shows finish wear including light scuffs, small scratches, minor edge softening, and areas of surface rubbing consistent with age and prior use. Structurally sound.
16” W x 14” H
