Description
This large William Comyns Silver Picture Frame was a very sad sight, bereft of all but its original glass. Originally a masterpiece of simplicity and clean lines this has now been restored and is ready for a new life. Because of its minimalist design we installed a modern replacement backboard complete with a rescued and refinished oak easel stand and replacement modern hinge. To do anything else could have compromised the structural integrity of the original silver and glass structure. The back-plate is complete with a new silk facing to accommodate the photograph to a maximum of 138mm wide x 195mm tall

condition
This is a frame that was rescued from almost certain scrapping, consequently whilst it has its original glass and silver, everything else has been replaced of repurposed from other 'lost causes'. However, this is not a Frankenstein's monster and would not look out of place along with its contemporaries on a shelf in any home or office. Please do make time to review all the pictures to gain a full appreciation of the item and its condition. Should you have any other questions in respect of either the item or its condition, please contact us and we will be pleased to assist wherever possible.
