About this piece
back to topAn antique George III hourglass hob grate, circa 1790, finished in a black graphite polish. Dating from the late 18th century, this antique hob grate has stood the test of time for over 230 years.
It pairs function with form, featuring a decorative front panel detailed to the centre with foliage and flanked by spearhead finials, between two heraldic style patera roundels. Further intricate details can be found on its front and around the fret, with tall urns decorated proudly on both legs.
This makes for a dramatic and imposing design that instils any period home with grandeur.
