About the Item
antique Cast iron fireplace bottom plate, with sculpted mythological figures, original from the 19th century, from Italy.
Cast iron plates were used, before the birth of refractory bricks, to protect the wall from fire and to improve the efficiency of the fireplace by continuing to emit heat for a certain time even after the fire had gone out.
