    Greetings,
    Need help identifying two vintage pieces, that I acquired at one of the local content sales.
    Silk (or other fabric) in the bronze frame. Back side is the same for both pictures.
    Anything that you can assist with: approximate time frame, origin, rarity etc
    Bronze frame size: 5.5" x 7.25"
    Thank you in advance

    Thank you, Debora.
    If anyone has insight to when the decor pieces were made?
    Thank you in advance

    Brass rather than bronze. And, at a guess, I'd think somewhere between the 1930s and the 1960s. But someone else may have a better idea.

    I've had a bunch of them from estate auctions recently and they were all "Made in Italy" - some with stickers still attached. Seem to have been made around the 70s/80s and I suspect the material is some kind of silky satin. Don't seem to be worth a great deal.
    Cheers

    Yes, an Italian import. And a staple one as made for a long period of time.
