Victorian Framed Seashell Art circa 1870. Frame is 38 x 32 cm across. Actual artwork is approx 27 x 20 cm across. Absolutely original and unique victorian shell art with extremely small shells affixed to a victorian cutout fashion plate on red velvet material. We have 2 other piece but this is in the best condition with very minimal shell loss. Glass is all good and original frame shows a lot of wear and some plaster loss is apparent. Frame can be repaired or left original without distracting from the greatness of this gorgeous 150 year old piece of artwork. The back of the frame has the tags with the museum catalog numbers still affixed.
