Antique Arts & Crafts Wrought Iron Fire Grate

About the Item

A good quality antique arts and crafts wrought iron fire grate with intricate scrolling decoration, circa 1890. Crafted at the hand of a talented 19th century blacksmith, this antique fire basket is wonderfully ornate, detailed with scrolling throughout. It is typical of the fine craftsmanship of the arts and crafts period and makes a stunning feature of a fireplace today. 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.
