Most auction houses, ours included, don't even show the frame in catalogues because it's not material to the work. Frames are a personal choice, and many people will want to re-frame the work they buy. If the frame is original to the piece and might have some historical significance, consult a conservator; otherwise, it's not worth the effort.<br /><br />Carrie Hunnicutt<br />Fine & Decorative Arts<br />Heritage Auctions (www.HA.com) <br />CarrieH@HA.com<br />1-800-872-6467 X1613Carrie Hunnicutthttp://www.ha.comnoreply@blogger.com
