19th Century Victorian Folding Brass Fire Screen
1 in stock
19th Century Victorian Folding Brass Fire Screen. Attractive 19th century Victorian folding brass fire screen or spark guard, featuring four equally sized hinged panels with elegant shaped tops, scrolling detail and decorative finials. The brass frame has a lovely aged patina, with fine wire mesh panels originally designed to protect the hearth from escaping sparks. The hinged construction allows the screen to be arranged around a fireplace or folded away when not in use. A particularly decorative example with an almost French influence to the scrolling design, ideal for a period fireplace or as an ornamental fireside accessory.
Dimensions: Each panel 30.5cm x 53cm high overall approx 100cm wide
Condition:In fair antique condition, requiring some restoration. The fine wire mesh has tears and holes and is loose in places within the frames. Ideally, all four panels would benefit from replacement mesh to restore the screen to practical use. The brass frame displays age related tarnishing, discolouration, surface marks and general wear, with some corrosion visible around the fittings. A lovely decorative piece with plenty of character, but currently best considered a restoration project rather than a functional spark guard. Please refer to the photographs.
