Description

Three large pewter picture frames from the Ann Karey Collection. Hand made in Mexico. Backs have hinged stands (can display vertically or horizontally). Glass is intact. Pewter surfaces have vintage patina with quite a few imperfections and scratches (especially the two flat surfaced ones.) One frame is 11.25x9.25 with an opening of 7.5x5. The other two frames are 10x12 with an opening of 9.5x7.75. The Ann Kary Pewter Company was founded in 1989 by an affluent Mexican family who recognized the value of high-quality Mexican handicrafts. Even today, the same family maintains special attention to all aspects of the production process, from designing the molds, to selecting only high-quality materials, to finishing the pieces with a select and experienced labor force. This attention to detail, coupled with their elegant designs and the inherent uniqueness of Mexican pewter (a mixture of aluminum and zinc), has led to accounts in such well-known department stores as Neiman Marcus, Marshall Fields, and Bloomingdale's.
