About this piece
back to topA very large, heavy and substantial mid 19th century English Arts and Crafts fire grate, ready for use. Ideal for burning large logs, this antique fire basket will fit perfectly in a large inglenook fireplace with a spacious recess.
Dating to circa 1870, this large antique fire grate has stood the test of time, made from durable cast iron and finished in black graphite. Two striking fire dogs catch the eye with their cast brass details and ornate Tudor rose embellishments, hinting to its age-old English heritage.
Perhaps this fire basket once sat in the drawing room of a Victorian stately home or large period townhouse as the stylish focal point of a fireplace, where all guests and residents alike drew near for warmth. Today, it makes an equally as impressive statement in a large room instilled with traditional English Victorian styling.
