Another frame repair for Edward Curtis Gold tones:

Photo was taken after I got started on the refinish,
as you can see by looking at the upper right,
this frame came in a very shinny cooper and very bright
corners.

Photographer Edward Curtis used this style of frame for framing his photo's.
Mostly his Gold Tones.  This frame had been refinished and changed from the look that he used.
My customer wanted it brought back to it's original look.

This is in progress:   After applying a mud I mixed up and
applying color to it, I then began toning down those
extra shinny corners.

This is the finished frame.

Now this frame looks like the others, he so famously
used on his photo's
