Antique Cast Iron Fireplaces
For many years antique cast iron inserts and antique fireplace surrounds were a major part of our business. We restored and sold hundreds of them over a 30 year period. We still have approximately 100 cast iron inserts and maybe 1,000 parts. We can offer these unrestored or fully restored as shown in the images, below. The casting detail of the originals is always far superior to the reproductions, and the variety is huge, unlike the sameness of the reproductions.
We have many more inserts available. DETAILS & IMAGES TO COME.
