This memorial work of art is in a solid wooden frame with a veneer coating the wood . I don’t think this is the original frame although it has kept the actual art piece well preserved throughout many years. There is visible wear and peeling to the veneer on the frame
This is a pre owned antique item that may show visible signs of wear or use consistent with age although considered to be in over all good condition. Pictures help tell the description please look them over.
