It seems from the National Portrait Gallery database of British Framemakers 1610-1950 that a carving, gilding, and frame making business was trading at this address '18 Silver Street, Golden Square, London' from 1801 to 1883 although the name/names were Jordan & Evans (to 1825) and then William Evans, and later William & Phillip Evans. I wonder if this frame is earlier that 1801 as it is a very good quality fully carved example, although it could also be later than 1883.
Labels and signatures from old and antique picture frames. Other aspects of framing, interiors, exteriors, signage, etc. Click on an image to enlarge. Email me, sidebar, Bron, or my colleague, fellow framewright, Richard Christie. If I add to a post, I'll bump it to the top. "Post Labels", to the right include specialties and locations if you are searching for something specific.
