A commanding symbol of strength and sovereignty, this antique fireback showcases a proud lion surrounded by royal emblems—the fleur-de-lis, the Tudor rose, and the Scottish thistle—uniting centuries of heraldic tradition. Each relief detail, from the lion’s flowing mane to the curling foliage, bears the mark of a master craftsman. The iron’s deep russet patina tells a story of endurance and legacy, once guarding noble hearths across Europe. A striking fusion of artistry and symbolism, this piece embodies Ancient Surfaces’ reverence for reclaimed history and timeless design.
