Antique French Louis XV Period 'Flower Baskets' Fireback / Backsplash, 18th C.

About the Item

Beautiful 18th century French Louis XV fireback with flower baskets and two pillars. The pillars refer to the club of Hercules and Stand for strength and the unknown. Towards the end of the 18th century and the start of the Louis XV style, the pillars took on a less hefty form and were decorated with symbols like flowers and flower baskets. The fireback is made of cast iron and has a brown patina. Upon request it can be made black / pewter colored with stove polish at no extra cost. The fireback has a small crack at the center bottom (see pictures) but can still be used in the fireplace or as a backsplash.
