18th Century French Louis XV Period 'Arms of France' Fireback / Backsplash
About the Item
Beautiful 18th century French Louis XV Period fireback with the arms of France. This is the coat of arms of the House of Bourbon, an originally French royal house that became a major dynasty in Europe. It delivered kings for Spain (Navarra), France, both Sicilies, and Parma. Bourbon kings ruled France from 1589 up to the French revolution as well as some short periods thereafter. The coat of arms consists of a crown with three Fleurs de Lys (French Lilies, symbolizing the purity of nobility) and branches of the olive tree (symbolizing peace) at both sides. The crown symbolizes royalty. The date of production, 1785, is also cast in the fireback. The pillars, called pillars of Hercules, stand for the club of Hercules. They symbolize strength and the unknown.
The fireback is made of cast iron and has a brown patina. It can be made black/pewter upon request at no extra costs. It is in good condition, no cracks.
