Antique photo of young couple in a hand painted fabric frame

Description

Offering a folky hand-painted fabric envelope that frames a photo of an earnest young couple, possibly on their wedding day. Based on their clothing, this piece dates to the early 1900s.

Measures: The frame is 7.5" x 5" and the opening for the photo is an oval that is 3.5" across. The surface of the frame is a wooly type fabric that is painted with a cheery red and green floral design. The back is a linen-type fabric that has rusty spots on it proving its age.
