Lovely Victorian Sea Moss Pressing in Period Frame moving figure and backed with thin muslinA lovely, large, and beautifully preserved Victorian sea moss pressing, because never will I ever say no to one of these. Shaped into a sort of wreath, but with plenty of wildness to it, and with a gorgeous range of color, from lush deep pink to very pale salmon. Behind glass, in the period black painted wood frame I found it in, with original wood backing. Framed: 10 7 8 x 9 1 8. Sight: 8 7 8 x 7 1 8. Excellent condition.
