A fine example of Machine Age sophistication, this Art Deco picture frame from circa 1935 embodies the sleek, industrial design ethos of the period. Crafted in gleaming chrome with glass panels, the frame exudes a bold, modernist aesthetic, seamlessly combining functionality with streamlined beauty.

Its defining feature—a striking loop-form handle—adds sculptural elegance while doubling as a design-forward accent, making this frame as much a work of art as the photograph it holds. The clean, geometric lines of the chrome and the interplay with the clarity of glass reflect the technological optimism of the 1930s while the classic handle reminds one of bedroom oil lamps from antiquity.

Perfect for discerning collectors and admirers of Art Deco design, this picture frame serves as both a cherished item of display and a testament to the Machine Age’s impact on decorative arts. Whether used to showcase a treasured photograph or appreciated as a standalone object, this piece brings timeless sophistication to any interior. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
