I'm cleaning out my mother's atelier. I found these in a box. It seems she intended to use them, take out the paintings, and use them again. Overall, they are in good condition. I would be happy if you could use them to hold beautiful paintings as they are. Please note that these items are amateur-owned and stored at home, and have been inspected. If you are concerned about minor scratches, dust, or slight discoloration of the paper on the back, please purchase a brand new item from a store. They contain glass, so I will pack them with great care. However, there may be issues with shipping. If anything happens, please let me know before leaving a review.
