Whimsy Picture Frame 1915
This antique Whimsy Picture Frame 1915 features 1915 at the top and the word Indian on the bottom. It comes complete with a glass front. This antique whimsy has a very unique shape for a picture frame. The artist chose Pony Beads to create the floral design and the border around the frame. Brown fabric covers the front, and Blue fabric covers the back and the inside of the pocket.
This frame is a classic example of a Beaded Whimsy tourist souvenir. Native American crafters in the border regions between Canada and the United States at the turn of the 20th century created many of these whimsies for the tourist trade. This Whimsy came from a previous owner, but it remains in nice condition for its age. You will see some bead loss on the bottom and a few of the fringe stands are broken. This Beaded Whimsy will make an unusual addition to your antique or whimsy collection!
The Whimsy Picture Frame 1915 measures approx. 9″ tall x 6″ wide not including the beaded loops on the bottom. The picture opening measures 5″ x 3.5″. One of a kind!
