Tintype Photo with Gold Gilt Metal and Hand Tooled Leather & Wood-Velvet Case
$40.00
Item Type: Antique
Description:
An attractive antique tintype photograph housed in a decorative case featuring gold gilt metal, hand-tooled leather, and wood construction. The image presents a classic portrait of women typical of the period, adding historical charm and visual interest.
The gold gilt frame remains in like-new condition, showcasing excellent preservation. The leather exterior is largely in good condition; however, the back hinge has separated, resulting in the case being in two parts. Despite this, the clasp functions well and the case closes securely.
The separation has been left as-is to preserve the original material, allowing for restoration according to personal preference.
