17th Century Italian Giltwood Roundel Frame – Hand-Carved with Floral Garland & Classical Motifs, c. 1675

This striking 17th-century Italian roundel frame is a superb example of Baroque-era craftsmanship, richly hand-carved, gessoed, and gold gilded with exceptional detail. The central relief features a braided garland of flowers and fruit, symbolizing abundance and classical elegance.

Surrounding the inner border are stepped fish-scale and egg-and-dart patterns, adding depth and architectural rhythm to the composition. A rare decorative object in its own right or ideal for housing a period mirror or artwork, this frame exemplifies the ornamental refinement and sculptural quality of late 17th-century Italian design.
