18th c. Spitalfields Fireplace Surround

About the Item

An historic chimneypiece or fireplace surround removed from an 18th century Georgian kitchen in Spitalfields, London.

English, circa 1760. Outside dimensions: 63 1/3" wide x 47" high x 5" deep. Inside dimensions: 24 1/4" wide x 36 1/2" high.
