An antique Victorian sterling silver double photo frame presents heavy repousse scrollwork, cherub motifs, foliate borders, and dual apertures. Silvery metal finishes surround two rectangular openings backed in blue velvet, detailed with embossed lions' heads, owls, dogs, and squirrels amongst intricate foliage. Hallmarks for Birmingham 1899 and the silversmith mark of Mitchell Bosley and Co identify the piece, which measures 23 cm high, 29 cm wide, and 2 cm deep. Positioned on a mantelpiece, the double frame displays portrait photographs within traditional Victorian and Gothic style interiors. The hinged blue velvet backstand supports the structure on flat surfaces for daily household use.

FAQs

Victorian sterling silver photo frames often feature detailed repousse work, intricate foliate patterns, scrollwork, and classical motifs. Produced during the late nineteenth century, these pieces were designed as decorative tabletop items to display personal portraits.

These frames typically consist of an embossed sterling silver front panel mounted onto a fabric or leather-covered wooden backing structure. The silver sheet was worked from the reverse side using repousse techniques to create raised decorative reliefs.

Authentic British pieces feature official hallmark stampings, including a makers mark, purity mark (lion passant for sterling silver), assay office mark, and date letter. The presence of these stamps confirms the precise metal purity and year of manufacture.

An antique silver frame can be positioned on a bedside table, desk, or mantelpiece alongside contemporary artwork or modern glass objects to create visual contrast.

Gently wipe the silver surface using a soft cotton cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding contact with the fabric backing. Avoid harsh liquid immersion to protect the structural backing from moisture damage.
