B1052 - SOLD

This is a magnificent antique French heraldic architectural mount / pediment dating from the 1800's.

It would be fantastic to incorporate into a building project as a focal point either inside or outside a house. Or it could just be used as a decorative piece and displayed on a wall or perhaps on a console table with other architectural treasure.

It is made of  cast iron and the design is dominated by a magnificent double headed eagle. Each head wears a crown and there is a central crown crest. Between the  eagle's  fantastic outstretched wings is a central shield with a rearing lion. Two crossed pikes complete the stunning ensemble.

The pediment is a hefty piece and weighs over 3 kilos. It has an integral bracket on the back for fixing it to a wall. The cast iron has patinated over the years to wonderful effect.

It measures:-   37 cms (14.5 inches) high x  32 cms (12.5 inches) wide.

A stunningly unique architectural piece and another superb antique French find from La Belle Étoffe.
