Item Details

Description

A George III polished steel and cast iron fire grate

in the manner of designs by Robert Adam (1728-1792) and probably by Henry Jackson
the serpentine knopped railed front before a plain rectangular backplate, the shaped sides with urn finials and formalised foliate engraved decoration within beaded borders, centred by beaded oval fluted patera below stiff leaf urn finials, the lower pierced frieze with corresponding oval patera, within beaded borders, the square section and canted tapering supports with corresponding larger urn finials, 79cm high, 102cm wide, 49cm deep approximately
Footnotes:
Provenance:
Ex Casterton Hall, Kirby Lonsdale, Cumbria

The design of the above 'dog' grate is similar to one now housed in the permanent collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum. Originally thought to have been made by the Sheffield firm of Henry Longden & Co., the V & A's grates attribution was later amended with the discovery of a period trade-card of a London iron-founder called Henry Jackson of 150 Saffron Hill near Smithfield market. The engravings to Jackson's trade card illustrate two similar grates to the V & A's example which include characteristic Adam influenced vase-shaped finials, seven-ball mouldings and applied oval panels decorated with swags. As such it therefore seems likely that the offered lot (which was apparently originally supplied with a matching cast-iron fender, decorated to match the grate) is also by Jackson.
