An ode to seafaring heritage, this antique fireback bears twin anchors beneath a bold date—symbols of steadfastness and resilience. Intricate palm motifs rise along the borders, framing a composition rich with stars, fleur-de-lis, and rhythmic wave patterns. The rusted patina enhances its weathered beauty, reminiscent of iron long exposed to sea air and firelight alike. Once a hearth’s guardian in a coastal manor, it now stands as a sculptural testament to exploration and endurance—an evocative piece from Ancient Surfaces that bridges the worlds of craftsmanship, adventure, and timeless artistry.
