I have never really been interested in antique dollhouse pieces. I am not
sure, even though this was advertised that way, this was originally meant
for dollhouse. It was made in the 1880's in France.
I just Googled tiny French brass picture frame and I found this offered by an antique dealer.. It was love at first sight. I liked the fact it had such intricate details and was square. It is one inch wide and 1 3/4 inches tall. The baby photo came with the frame. That I will take out eventually.
It has an easel back and it is solid brass. I have never deliberately altered an antique. Even the antique buttons I have collected. Sadly, the easel will have to come off to use it on a wall. It is too big to sit on a table.
I have fiddled around all afternoon avoiding cutting the back off. How silly...You'd think I could find something else to feel guilty about!
