About the Item

It represents a fine example from the period, with the rich patina and classical motifs that people cherish in an early 20th century American fireback. This piece features a central crest surrounded by scroll and foliate details, as well as two side panels adorned with torches, all in relief. These sculptural patterns, subtly raised from the background, appear framed by squares within each panel. Excellent vintage condition. American, circa 1907 Dimensions: Side panels 19" W x 28" H x .5" D Middle panel 31" W x 28" H x 2.25" D.
