Description
This is a fine quality English 18th century style antique fire grate, incorporating a neo-classical design, made from solid cast iron, circa 1920, in excellent original condition. Benefitting from a freestanding neo-classical / renaissance design, this antique cast iron log grate features a domed backplate, decorated with an embossed neo-classical urn and floral swag motif design. The cast iron fireplace grate is constructed with two taller dome caped legs at the rear, and two smaller shaped legs at the front, which support four flat capped finials. The Georgian style fire grate frame is constructed with a castellated basket, incorporating decorative riveted studs and vertical spike bars for keeping the logs in place. The internal floor grate can be removed from the basket, allowing for easy cleaning. The antique fire place grate can be used with either wood logs or coal. The 18th century style fire grate is constructed of cast and hand forged iron and the open fire grate features an attractive finish, giving it a lovely colour and appearance.
This neo-classical period fire basket would look superb in a variety of open hearths, inglenooks or fireside locations. The cast iron log grate would certainly grace any home and is a great investment as it not only extremely functional but also highly decorative, which can also house floral displays.
