This is a stunning and 100% original antique deep wood shadow box picture frame with carved log outer border, red velvet inside, gold gilt inner border, and original signed 1871 Washington chalk winter land/ frozen waterscape inside with tiny people walking on the ice in the distance. The original wavy, bubbly glass is intact. 

The entire piece is in excellent condition, but there are some patches of velvet fibers that loosened up and are floating around inside (could be wiped clean if the back was opened up). The frame is solid and sturdy with very little to no visible damage anywhere and the chalk is flawless. The colors in the chalk and the red velvet have not faded and the gold gilding is only a little spotty from age but is bright and shiny overall. 

The frame measures 17 1/4" W x 19 1/4" H and the opening in the back measures 10 1/2" x 12 1/2". It will be packed securely and fully insured during shipping.
