c.17th century Italian wooden flower on later stand
A beautiful antique, believed Italian, wooden carved flower believed originating from a very large, old, circa 17th century picture frame.

At some stage it has been mounted on a metal pole going into a triangular footed base, painted with now faded yellow, white and gold, it has a wonderful leaf design and patina.
