About This Piece

Vintage Design

A beautifully carved set of two Bavarian ebonised picture frames elaborately carved in a charming traditional tree trunk design, held together with a cross-lap joint. Dating from the mid 19th Century, the set of two matching hand-carved fruitwood picture frames were bought from Berchtesgaden on the Austrian/German border. Both of the frames retain period cut glass and wall hangers.
Large frame measures: 18.5cm H x 23.5cm W x 1cm D. Smaller frame: 14.5cm H x 19.5cm W x 1cm D
PLEASE NOTE: I have two other sets available in store - please see last image for a group shot.

The region's best-known handicraft is the "Berchtesgadener War" - wooden products made and painted by hand in the snow-free months by the poor Berchtesgaden farmers as a sideline. The pieces were carried by peddlers from the princely Berchtesgadener Land to the cities and neighbouring countries, providing the locals with a source of secondary income that was essential to their survival. In 1805, there were 641 wood craftsmen in Berchtesgaden still carving and turning wood!
