  • Patent number: 4505959
    Abstract: A framed, multi-faceted, appearing, colored picture, or design, such as of a spray of flowers is formed by a frame, having a front surface, or rim, in a single flat plane, the frame enclosing the colored picture and the picture being divided, in its entirety, into at least two, and preferably not more than about twenty, flat planar surfaces, each angularly disposed to the other and angularly disposed to the plane of the rim. Adjacent such surfaces meet along angular elongated ridges and angular elongated valleys to provide a desired multi-faceted appearance to the colored flower, or other, picture. The angularly disposed, flat planar surfaces are each of different outline and different area to avoid uniformity.
