A remarkable piece of Southern architectural history, this late 19th-century cast iron fireplace surround and matching summer cover were salvaged from a historic estate in the New Orleans French Quarter.
The set features a refined Neoclassical design, characterized by elegant sunburst (fan) motifs in the upper spandrels and a heavily textured, arched frame. The centerpiece is a stunningly intricate summer cover, boasting a pierced lattice-work pattern and a central circular medallion. This "Estate Provenance" set is finished in a deep, matte architectural black, making it a versatile statement piece for a period restoration or a high-end contemporary interior.
Perfect for adding historic soul to a bedroom, study, or parlor, this set captures the quintessential ironwork aesthetic of Old New Orleans.
