Hearts in the Corners, Sweet Old Folk Art Frame with Original Glass decoative inlay with a few ink stains

with a few ink stains I think are original to its making

Hearts in the Corners, Sweet Old Folk Art Frame with Original Glass decoative inlay with a few ink stainsA sweet one, and January seems the right time for finally framing some things that have been sitting in a pile. Nice size, original glass, made with love for sure, earlyish 20th century I believe. 9 3 4" x 9 5 16" x 3 4". Opening 6 3 4" x 5 3 4". Good condition, sturdy and sound, with original glass. Eye hooks in place on the back for wiring and hanging vertically, but easy to move them and hang horizontally.
