Please note that I have had an operation and will be unable to dispatch larger items till later in the month, as I am not supposed to move heavy items etc. My partner will continue to try and get smaller items out as normal. If you would like to know if we can get your item out in our normal timeframes, please just message us with a link and we will let you know. If you are happy to wait for your item, then please go ahead and place your order as normal! Thanks for your business, and your patience and understanding. Chris

This stunning antique cast iron fire fender is a decorative and functional piece of Victorian fireplace history. It features a richly detailed fruit and foliage relief design, complete with acorns, berries, and lush leaf clusters in a continuous pattern. The craftsmanship is exemplary, showing deeply cast relief and a strong gothic revival influence, making it ideal for traditional interiors or period restorations. It has been finished in matt black with slight natural oxidation, giving it authentic aged charm without compromising structure.

The fender is constructed entirely from cast iron and is very heavy and solid. It stands freely with well-defined corner returns and will sit beautifully in front of most standard-sized fireplace hearths. Its bold styling and naturalistic ornamentation make it not only a protective barrier but also a statement piece for a classic or country-inspired décor scheme. There is light surface rust consistent with age, which only adds to its character.

Perfect for collectors of antique fireplace accessories, interior designers seeking authentic heritage pieces, or vintage enthusiasts looking for timeless architectural salvage. This would look fantastic in a Victorian townhouse, cottage setting, or a rustic country home.

It is incredibly heavy and will need to be sent by a professional large furniture courier, and this service is fully included in the price.
