#112 - Adjustable Standing Frame
|
 |
This frame is wonderful! It is completely articulated so the frame moves or tilts in any direction, independently from the base.
The frame also has holes along all 4 slats and has 4 tiny pegs so you can adjust it to any size you wish, glue in the pegs and mount your completed stitchery.
There are 3 parts to this piece: the frame itself, which pegs into the knuckle joint, which in turn, pegs into the base.
I photographed the frame from the side so you can see the intricate nature of its construction. |
Period: 18th Century, American Colonial c. 1750-1755
