About the Item

A compact antique iron and brass fire grate sourced in Northern France. With elements crafted at the hand of a talented 19th century blacksmith, this antique fire basket displays a simple yet handsome design. It is an impressive and stylish feature for a fireplace in any period property. Wrought Iron Fire Grates Ironwork made from wrought iron have stood the test of time. This traditional method of craftsmanship sees the metal heated to a high temperature and then hammered into shape by a blacksmith’s hand, creating a robust and durable finish. The more wrought iron is worked, the stronger it becomes, making some of the most ornate antique ironwork some of the strongest. Large scale commercial production of wrought iron products ended in the mid 1970s due to the expensive and time-consuming nature of blacksmithing, making wrought iron pieces true antiques, showcasing talented craftsmanship of the past.
