A vintage print of a 1824 sampler contained within a pine frame which has clear age

The frame is covered in gesso/plaster to which gold leaf has been applied. The gold leaf is over a coating of red oxide (traditionally done to enhance the lustre of the gold leaf). The red oxide is showing in places which adds to the colour palette of the frame

The distressed nature of the frame complements the sampler print which is contained within a brown coloured mount 

The print is in excellent condition being a print of a sampler produced in 1824

The frame has a backing board attached via new glazier points and also has a new hanging cord. The item is ready to be hung: a very attractive decorative unglazed print in a lovely distressed frame

Dimensions:

External: 58.5cms by 43cms

Aperture size: 54cms by 38cms 

The frame will be delivered (just to the UK mainland) by UPS though personal collection from Buntingford (East Herts SG9) is welcome
