Object Description

An antique early 18th century wrought iron gate guard. Believed to originate from a Scottish castle, this large unusual gate guard’s striking spikes give a menacing, medieval look, while displaying detail and precision; a masterclass in 18th century blacksmithing.
The back would have likely been used as a decorative piece. This striking piece could be used as a wall decoration or even a coat rack today. Perfect for period properties looking to showcase 18th century Scottish heritage.

Object Condition

Good structural condition. Restored. There are a couple of replaced spiked heads. Light even surface rust finish. The back part, which fits against the wall, is 19th century and the spiked part, which hangs off this, is 18th century.
