    This marquetry is about 70-80 years old.
    I wonder what the age of it's frame would be? Same? 1940's? 1950's?

    Collors are far good in images.

    The whole frame is exact the same. Just cut in 45° angles on the corners.
    The back is wood. Sort of pinewood as far as i can see.

    Put it back after i took those pictures. Later.

    Will take an image later. I'm not sure bout that. At least for sure its not tropical hard wood.

    But why would pine not be old if i may ask? Pine is used for ages.

    pine is a soft wood......I consider old frames to be mostly hard wood.....

    but hey......that's just me..:wacky:

    Lime wood is also often used (old Masters), as apple wood is. Those are soft.
    As i said, i'm not sure about what wood it is.

    As above. Please post photographs of the entire work including frame from both the back and front. Also include close-up photographs of any stickers, labels or handwritten notations on the back.

    I will post an image of the back later (dark here now).
    The whole frame does not add anything. Glued and nailed 45° sawed corners. No stickers, labels or handwriting.
    With this I gave all the details.

    Just asking to date the frame on style, and if that could be about 70-80 years old as the marquetry.
    Thanks in advance.

    This is a pretty tolerant bunch but... You're asking us to help you date something and you're unwilling to show us what that something is in its entirety.

    Where am i not polite? Ai answer decent. Show all i van show from the frame. Explain decent there are no more details to show.

    Please tell me, where am i not polite???

    I showed everything of the frame i can show. There is nothing more to show. The back yes, and i said that will follow.
    Why you call me unwilling??

    Ok. More images will follow. Although they won't bring more frame details.

    Right. Read to quick.
    But still. i did my best. I helped (your word choises) Am willing. Why suggest i'm not? Why suggest as if i'm annoying. Unwilling

    Again theres a situation growing as if i do things wrong. Again the same people liked that "unwilling" post. As if a pack is after me.
    Get tensed from this. As walking on eggs.
    My warming for ban is being triggered here!

    Please shut this topic. It's finished. Ok. I saynothing more. Fun is gone for me.

    So i correct myself @komokwa
    Excuses to you i read you wrong and reacted wrong to from that.

    So...
    I answer decent and willing. Show all i can show from the frame with my best willing intentions. Explain decent there are no more details to show.
    I showed everything of the frame i can show, willingly. There is nothing more to show. The back yes, and i said that will follow (being willing!). When you asked it was evening here, and i wanted to do the effort (be willing!) to make pictures with good lightning.

    Please tell me, where am i unwilling???

    Wy should I be tollerant accepting such indecent personal attack? Again and again.
    It is such a simple question. Can this frame with it's style be 70-80 years old? The marquetry is, for sure without doubt. That's not what i'm asking so not relevant (and willingly partly shown, so clear impression). So why unwilling to simply answer this plain simply questing, but instead starting another "silly" duscussion? To get me banned?

    No need to trigger me into a ban. No need to like to trigger escalation (again, A and K).
    I leave myself. Who must i ask to delete my account including all posts and images?
