Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A George II steel fender is an 18th-century hearth accessory designed to surround the base of an open fireplace to retain hot cinders and embers.

Fenders from this era were primarily crafted from hand-forged steel or brass, frequently shaped into serpentine fronts and detailed with hand-pierced fretwork pattern cuts.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut openwork geometric fret patterns, subtle surface variations from hand-forging, and natural surface oxidisation.

Position the fender directly onto a stone, slate, or tile hearth to define the fireplace area and add structured metalwork texture.

Keep the metal completely dry to avoid surface rust, clean with a dry soft cloth, and apply a thin layer of microcrystalline wax to prevent oxidisation.
