This 19th Century composition ornamented frame was close to being beyond repair, with major damage on the bottom section, and lots of other missing areas on the other three sides. The gilded and painted glass (Verre églomisé) was also damaged and this was carefully touched up by another gilded who worked with us sometime ago. It has taken a long time to finish, but I think the end result is worth the labour, as it's a good compo frame with a nice pattern on the cove.
