About the Item

Antique 19th Century Cast Iron Armorial Plaque Featuring the Lion and Unicorn Coat of Arms A striking and historically resonant 19th-century cast iron armorial plaque, boldly depicting the iconic British heraldic motif of the Lion and the Unicorn—emblems of England and Scotland respectively. This finely detailed piece showcases the Royal Coat of Arms with exceptional craftsmanship, embodying the grandeur and authority of the era. Traces of the original polychrome paint and gilding remain visible, lending a sense of faded regality and authenticity to this antique artifact. A rare and evocative decorative remnant, likely once mounted on a public building or institutional façade, it stands as a testament to Victorian heraldic art and the enduring symbolism of monarchy.
