from the French, (se) souvenir to remember.

Recently discovered at market in France, a lovely Antique French Souvenir Frame in the shape of a horseshoe. Romantic in nature and fashioned from warm-toned natural wood, this lovely frame was an early travel memento from the early 20th century, undoubtedly treasured as a lasting memory from a special visit to France or stop on the Grand Tour.

With a rich finish now softened to a honey-hued patina and a curving horseshoe-shaped silhouette elevated by magnificently carved fretwork, the frame is further enhanced by additional charming details. Surrounding the photo inset, brightly shaded coral and goldenrod-colored marquetry has been inlaid, acting as a secondary frame. Contrasting the smart, geometric motif, painted horseshoe "clinch" nails symbolizing good luck and graceful swallows depicting love, loyalty, hope and home, invite the viewer to Souvenir (remember).

With a sweet and sentimental provenance that recalls the glamour of continental travel, we are confident this most special and earnest frame will faithfully display your most treasured photos for decades to come.



Strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. In very good antique condition. Overall frame measures 13.5"H x 7"W at widest point.
