Here is a group of two oval antique miniature picture frames. One is brass thin metal with filigree reticulating flowers. The other is ' English Silver' which is probably a silver plate metal with embossed designs. The brass one measures 7 1/4 x 4 15/16 in. The back insert size is about 4 x 5 1/2 in. It has its original kickstand, cardboard backing, and glass. That frame has some darkening of the metal at the bottom left but no other issues. The smaller one measures 5 x 4 in. and the back insert is about 5 x 4 in. as it seems to be just a slip-on frame. It looks like you have to pull the back metal away from the thin cardboard backing. The back says to pull out pins on top and bottom but those look to have been lost in the last 100 + years. This one is in fair as-is condition with bends in the metal at the front probably when someone tried to replace the picture inside. The deals brass one has a handsome man and the silver one has a pretty demure-looking woman inside the frame. The brass one is in much better condition and I decided to add the silverplate one as a plus to the sale. Please enlarge all pics to judge the condition to your own standards. You could buy repro antique-style frames with no issues or you can get the real deal and buy these. I would place these frames in the very early 1900s to before the 1920s time period.
