- Antique Very Rare Eagle Cast Iron Fire Grate Tiled Fire Insert
- This is totally original with its original tiles (these could be changed)
- This was made by the Eagle foundry
- It is marked - Gold Medal Eagle Grate by Royal Letters Patent
- We have only had to clean this in our workshops
- The pictures below show how this grate is to be used. In the Summer and other times when the fire is not being used the doors are closed, in this mode it was still attractive to look at. When in use the doors are folded back and it then looks like a normal tiled insert.
- All of the original tiles and small brass knobs are still fitted
- To put this into use a standard fireback from your local builders merchant would be used
- The grate overall measures 36" tall and it is 33" wide x 13" deep (approx)
- The doors close when the fires is not in use and then fold back when the fire is lit, this unique feature helps stop any problems associated with leaving the fireplace open when not in use.
