The Dragons Fire Surround
For sale "The Dragons"
This beautiful, large, fully restored antique cast iron fire surround from the late Victorian period. Reclaimed from a period property in Cheshire, it was cast between 1870-1890 and is a stunning piece of architectural history.
Fully functioning and beautifully preserved, it is a striking and ornate quality fire surround. It is tastefully proportioned with finally cast panels. It retains its original, substantial mantle shelf.
With no rear projection, 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 with heat resistant black spray paint, then finished with traditional black grate polish.
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 and rare charm to your property.
There are discreet mounting lugs on the outer body for simple and safe installation.
