Trade Winds Eclectic Winter Menagerie Antique & Vintage Auction Grafton, OH (Closed #7491429)

A embossed flower filled urn designed leather case surrounds this antique Victorian Ambrotype capturing the image of a handsome man with tailored beard in refined attire. The ornate leather wrapped case is lined in cranberry hued silk velvet, trimmed in glittering gold embossed metal framework with single hook closure. There is deterioration to the silk velvet, the image has a metallic sheen when tilted (could not capture it correctly with my camera - not as obvious as a Daguerreotype) measuring 3” x 2 1/2” x 3/4”...from the Ladow family estate, early Chagrin Falls Ohio residents.
