FAQs

Victorian gilt picture frames were produced during the nineteenth century, characterised by deep profiles, intricate mouldings, and gold leaf applications over gesso preparations. They were widely manufactured to house oil portraits, landscapes, and mirror plates.

These frames were constructed with a softwood pine base core covered in plaster or gesso composition (compo) mouldings. The surface was then finished using water gilding or oil gilding techniques with thin gold leaf sheets.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural age signs such as fine cracking (craquelure) in the gesso, red or dark clay bole peeking through rubbed gold leaf, and hand-cut wooden joinery on the reverse backboard.

An antique gilt frame can be used as a striking contrast item by placing contemporary modern art inside it, or hung unmounted as an architectural wall object within a minimal gallery wall.

Dust the surface gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water, chemical solvents, or damp cloths which dissolve gesso and detach fragile gold leaf.
