A fantastic, reclaimed, antique Edwardian cast iron fire surround that is of an ideal size for a living or dining room. The fire has a very elegant design with flowers along the crossbar, in a style typical of the era. The fire opening is surrounded by a traditional border. The original mantel was damaged and it has been replaced with an attractive oak mantel that has been painted black to match. The crossbar is over 30cm high and therefore the oak mantel will be far enough away from a heat source and can therefore be used with a fire insert, basket or to surround a wood burner. The iron has been blacked and polished and the fire has a fine finish. There are two lugs under the mantel for fixing screws. The back of the fire has a registered design number, RD373776, dating the fire to 1900-1909. The fire is in good antique condition with some small signs of age. There are some small scratches, knocks and casting marks. The back of the fire has surface rust as expected. Please see pictures for condition details. The fire has a very beautiful period look and is a lovely example of Edwardian design.
