Seriously cute sterling silver antique photo frame - embossed silver, swags, scrolls etc, mounted onto dark blue velvet. Internal size of frame is 12.75 cm by 9 cm. Whole item is 17.5 cm by 13 cm. Easel foot rear. Has a British hallmark for sterling silver, Birmingham 1902. Maker's mark is W.O. Condition: there is fading to the velvet - and when one polishes this type of frame where the velvet show around the edges, polish inevitably gets onto the fabric and hardens it. Easel foot hinge is not perfect. There is a dent to the central cartouche at the top of the frame, and other signs of age and use. A very pretty frame, nicely mellowed by age.
