The design of this picture frame is by Fratelli Mannelli, as attested by the adhesive label still present on the back, and is characterized by a semicircular shape, cut at the base to allow it to rest on the surface. The part intended for the photo is round and placed in the center of a large frame. The total dimensions of the article are 28cm in height, 29cm in width and 8cm in depth (calculating the size of the transverse base that gives it stability). The picture frame is in good vintage condition, it shows minimal signs of use and age and natural imperfections of the material. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
