Code: FC0215
Dimensions:
A pretty, reclaimed, cast iron bedroom combination fire. The fire, dating to C.1900, has a very nice period appearance with a wreath, bluebell swags and flowers along the crossbar. The fire has a domed smoke hood with a pretty wreath design. The fire retains its shaped front bars. The fire has two fixing lugs, one on either side of the crossbar, for fixings to attach the fire to the wall, a small tab at the base of each foot and there are tabs at the back of the mantel for sinking into the wall. The iron has been blacked and polished and has a nice finish.
The fire is in solid condition with some signs of age and wear, as expected of reclaimed antiques. The smoke flap is a replacement and it is not a perfect fit and therefore there are gaps on either side between the top of the fire back and the smoke flap. The fire brick has several cracks but it is stable. The iron has some casting marks and pitting. The back has surface rust. Please see pictures for condition details. The fire has a very nice period design and would be ideal for adding decorative character to a bedroom.
