Up for sale is a gorgeous, authentic late 19th to early 20th-century antique oval picture frame featuring a stunning \"tiger stripe\" faux-bois wood finish. It comes complete with its original, highly collectible convex (bubble) glass and a striking, period-correct portrait.
The portrait is a classic antique \"crayon portrait\" (a charcoal enlargement over a photographic base). The hand-drawn detailing gives the male subject an incredibly intense, hauntingly beautiful gaze. This piece has a fantastic, naturally \"spooky\" aesthetic that is absolutely perfect for Victorian gallery walls, dark academia decor, or gothic/oddities collections!
