ABOUT PRODUCTID 4778
This elliptical, wall-mounted photo frame was crafted in Germany circa 1900–1920 and exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of the turn of the 20th century. Made from turned wood and finished with a deep, glossy black French polish, the frame presents a cool, lustrous surface. The inner gold-toned insert, with its matte-satin texture, provides a subtle transition between the frame and the photograph, softly highlighting the image within. The original glass protects the photo, while a metal hanging loop and the preserved label of Henrich Kock’s framing workshop in Kiel attest to its authenticity. Measuring 12.5 × 9.5 × 1.5 cm and designed for a 6 × 9 cm photograph, the frame is in excellent condition, with only minor signs of age and a light patina on the gilded detail. The frame’s form softly echoes the spirit of an era when bourgeois interiors sought balance between restraint and discreet ornamentation. The smooth black wood reflects light like a lacquered piano in a fin-de-siècle salon, while the gilded accent recalls the tradition
