The traditional decor in the style of L'Ecole Boulle in Paris takes up the classics of this prestigious Parisian cabinetmaking school. The frame is decorated by hand with a faux wood effect adorned with delicate gilded brass work. The back and easel are in avocado green moire silk taffeta. The surround around the oval photo view is richly decorated with a garland of gilded bronze flowers in the purest Boulle style. The frame is marked on the back with the Christian Dior logo in hot stamping in gold letters. This frame can be displayed on furniture or hung on the wall.
The frame is in good condition, with minor wear on the fabric at the back.
