Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Au 24, 1915 Application filed June 12, 1915. Serial m. 33,640.
To all 1.5/10). it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES OSBORNE, a citizen of the United States, 'anda resident of the borough of Manhattan, county, city, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Floral Frames, set forth in the following specification.
This invention relates to ornamental art ware. Its oject is to provide the necessary mechanical structure to ornament a frame in a unique and effective manner.
To the above end there is contemplated within the scope of the invention the combing with a frame, usually of the type adapted to display a cabinet photograph, of an auxiliary frame comprising principally a pair of vases which approximately grasp the picture frame proper and are adapted to hold floral offerings in a position greatly to ornament the entire structure.
Further objects of the invention are to improve in general a picture frame of the type described.
The above will be more readily understood by reference to the illustrative embodiment described in the following specification and shown in the accompanying drawings, which form a part hereof, in which like characters designate corresponding parts in the several figures and in which,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the com plete structure; Fig. 2 is a vertical central section looking toward the left of Fig. 1; and Fig. 3 is a side elevation showing the right hand vase in axial section.
The picture frame A may be constructed in any appropriate design and in any suitable manner known to the art. That illustrated comprises a spun metal rim 1 bent to the outer configuration of a molding. The rim 1 contains the usual glass front 2 held in place by any suitable back structure 3 which may have interposed between itand the glass a photograph or other picture indicated mechanically by the sheet structure r. The back 3 is held in place by a bottom lip 5 formed as a part of the rim 1 and by swivel catches 6. An easel strut 7 supports the entire structure at the desired angle. The picture frame A is itself framed by an auxiliary frame B which, in its combination with the frame A imparts the unique character to the structure as a whole. The embodiment of the illustrative frame B shown comprises a base portion 8, which may be hammered out of sheet metal or fabricated in ,any suitable manner as by'casting and is shown as forming a receptacle for the bottom of the picture frame A to which the metal rim 1 is secured in any suitable manner as by soldering. The base 8 terminates upwardly on either side in two horns 9 and 10. A pair of horn-shaped metal Vase casings 11 and 12 are fastened at their lower ends to the upper ends of the horns 9 and 10 and are preferably anchored along their inner faces to the opposite edges of the rim 1. The central axis-of each vase frame 11 and 12 instead of being a straight line is preferably a curve, so as gradually to bring the mouth of the vase easing into an upright position, and to cause the substantially coni cal surface of the vase casings to blend into and conform to the rearwardly tilting side edges of the picture frame A.
In the embodiment illustrated the'vase casings 11 and 12 terminate in beads 13 and 14, the upper edges of which are substantially horizontal. These beads 13 and 14L form a seat for the water- holding cups 15 and 16, which are shaped to fit into the casings 11 and 12 and the top portions of which carry out the vase design partly embodied in the casings 11 and 12. The cups 15 and 16 are illustrated as. manually removable to faciltate' the filling with water and the cleaning of the same. It would not be a departure from the invention, however, for the entire vase structure to be of a single .part.
In Fig. 1, the floral offerings 17 and 18 are illustrated in the form of roses which, owing 1 to the shape and placement of the vases 11 and 12 continue and carry out the effect of the auxiliary frame B.
lVhat is claimed, and what is desired to be secured by United States Letters Patent is:--
1. As an article of ornamental art manufacture an integral structure comprising a picture frame; an auxiliary frame embracing and sustaining said picture frame and comprising a pair of hollow vases approximately grasping said picture frame and capable of holding water to preserve floral offerings to the picture in the frame.
2. As an article of ornamental art manufacture; an integral structure comprising a vases having removable top sections.
In witness whereof, I have signed my in the presence of name to this specification, two subscribing witnesses.
