A large and elegant, reclaimed, Edwardian cast iron fire surround. The surround is ideal for pairing with a wood burner or large fire basket and is suited to a living or dining room due to its size. The fire surround has a fantastic period appearance with a beautiful tulip design in the centre of the cross bar. There is a delicate repeated design above the tulip and the mantel has a recessed line border. There is a thick border surrounding the outer edge of the fire. The cast iron has been blacked and polished and has a good colour and finish. The back edge of the mantel has two lugs for fitting into the wall and there are two lugs, one on each side, under the mantel for fixings. The surround is in good, useable, condition with some signs of wear and some repaired damage, as expected of antique items. The fire has sustained some damage that has been repaired to a good standard. The cross bar had some breaks that have been repaired and are solid but some thin cracks can still be seen upon inspection. The left hand foot also had a break that has been repaired and there is a thin visible crack. There are some small knocks and marks and some pitting on the mantel. Please see pictures for further details. The fire surround has a classic and refined appearance, illustrating lovely Edwardian design, that would be suited to a period home and would make a fantastic statement piece.
