***DISCLAIMER ON ANTIQUE ITEMS: All of the old frames we use are salvaged, reclaimed or repurposed. Therefore, they may not be perfect; it is likely that each will have its own slight flaws. This is inevitable when using antique/vintage items, we would not be able to make these displays if we only used frames in perfect condition because that is far too rare. However, we do only use pieces with small flaws that we feel is acceptable wear; we find that tiny scratches or other small imperfections are okay as long as they don't interfere with the display or impressiveness of a specimen. Any large flaws will be noted in the description and likely discounted.

Unfortunately we are no longer shipping internationally, USA orders only.
