Not framed so it definitely has so many shelf life as you can see in the photos. Some of the threads are broken and some of the beads and small stuff are missing, but almost the embroidery is still very good! You can put a frame of it or just let it be that way. Because of the age, some of the broken threads may fragile, it may keep fall or broken. It’s a very precious collectible piece! And honestly its in very good shape and quality after 100 years without any frame or protection.
