This early 20th Century carved corner frame was made by J.H. Miller and Co, Springfield, Massachusetts. I've said before how much I like this type of frame, and the many other styles of carved frames of the American Arts and Crafts, and Impressionist frame making movements. I wonder why these styles are not more popular (or at all) in the UK, they are virtually unseen. Maybe the American styles never really made the transfer over here, or maybe they did and didn't appeal to artists, galleries, and the public here. I'd like to make up some samples one day, my versions inspired by these types of frames....one day.
