Tall Victorian Cast Iron Surround
For sale is this beautiful tall, large, fully restored antique cast iron fire surround from the late Victorian / early Edwardian period. Reclaimed from a period property in Cheshire, it was cast between 1895-1905 and is a charming original architectural feature.
Fully functioning and beautifully preserved, it is a striking yet simple surround. It is tastefully proportioned with attractive molding across the frieze and body. It retains its original, substantial mantle shelf.
With no rear projection and a slight rebate to accommodate an insert if required, it is perfect to go over an existing chimney breast opening or against a flat wall.
A classic antique period piece, this surround has been professionally stripped, cleaned, protective coated and polished to bring out its original character.
Made of solid, heavyweight cast iron, the whole thing is in excellent condition for its age with a beautiful patina.
As with most period fireplaces of this type, the simplicity of design and quality of the ironwork is what makes it so attractive. It will bring unique charm and character to your property.
It has been fully polished and coated for protection.
There are discreet mounting lugs on the outer body for simple and safe installation.
