This type of chain fencing was typically used to line a walkway or separate a small area from the rest of the garden. The chain panels would be hung between two fixed objects such as posts or walls. Each panel features a large center medallion with a cherub / putti / angel face and 4 hanging chains with very large and intricate iron links.

Sold individually, we have 4 total of the same design but slightly different sizes. All are listed on Chairish. The two available here (priced individually) make a true pair (exactly the same size). The two in the other listing are a near pair with one having one fewer link in 1 leg. Sizes are indicated by the number of links in the chain and by approximate dimensions as overall width & height are dependent on the angle of the chains when installed.

Dimensions: medallion, 8"W x 12"H; # of links are given clockwise from the upper right of photo: 11 links + 11 links + 13 links & bell shape hardware + 13 links. Stretched out straight, 11 links are approximately 20" long; 13 links are approximately 25" long. Each interlocking link is roughly 3.25"L x 3"H.

Very good condition with surface wear from age and previous enjoyment.

Under separate listings, we also have both a single and a pair of 24"H cast iron posts from the same period which would look fabulous with these chain/medallion panels.

We have numerous iron, terracotta, and wood architectural salvage pieces on offer. having bought over 300 pieces from a well-known European antique dealer. Just search on Chairish for "Chez Vous Antiques" to see all these antique treasures.
