FAQs

A fire fender, or fireplace kerb, is a low protective barrier placed around an open hearth to retain burning embers and ash within the fireplace area. During the Victorian era, they evolved from functional items into decorative metalware focal points for period living rooms.

Antique fenders were predominantly constructed from cast brass, wrought iron, copper, or sheet steel, often featuring pierced fretwork, beaded moulding, or stamped decorative patterns over an iron base to withstand high temperatures.

Authentic Victorian examples typically exhibit hand-pierced or cast geometric and foliate decoration, rolled rims, cast foot mounts such as claw or ball feet, and natural surface patination or slight oxidisation on the interior metal surfaces.

An antique brass fender adds warm metallic texture and historical contrast when framed around a working or decorative fireplace, whether paired with traditional tiled inserts or clean modern hearth surrounds.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid abrasive chemical cleaners which can strip original patina; unlacquered brass can be gently polished with a specialist metal polish using a soft brush to access intricate pierced details.
