Cast from solid iron during the 18th century, such items were used to protect the expensive masonry at the back of the fireplace, which was used on almost a daily basis in northern Europe. Ultimately, the ever-style conscious French decided to cast them with certain themes, and this one is especially charming with a little shepherd girl enjoying the company of her favorite pet dog. Perfect for adding a Country French touch to your kitchen, too!
Circa 1750s.
