Vintage Oak Framed Fire Guard Tapestry
This is a vintage fire guard featuring a beautifully embroidered tapestry panel. The tapestry depicts a vibrant still life of fruit and flowers, set within a solid oak frame. Measuring 57cm x 53cm, this piece would have originally been placed before a fireplace to prevent embers from escaping, while also serving as a decorative element. The tapestry is securely mounted within the frame, creating a charming and nostalgic piece of home decor.
Condition and Collectibility
This fire guard shows signs of age and use, consistent with its vintage nature. The oak frame exhibits some wear and patina, adding to its character. The tapestry itself is in good condition, with minor imperfections that are typical of hand-embroidered pieces. This item would appeal to collectors of vintage textiles, fireplace accessories, or those seeking a unique and characterful addition to their home decor.
