Another finished frame




Here is another finished frame that was an earlier post. The outer section of the profile is gilded in lemon gold, the inner section was painted off-white and a grey/brown colourwash was applied to the cove. Next came stippled on wax - Liberon tudor oak and also liming wax, this was left to dry for a few hours before the frame was given a polish and the wax finish was cut back a little with wire wool. The sides were also finished with tudor oak wax, lastly the gilding was wiped with white spirit to remove any wax residue and the frame was given a good polish.
