Rare 17th Century Fire Back

Rare 17th Century Fire Back

Here we have this Rare 17th Century Fire Back in stock and on display in our showroom area here at Authentic Reclamation. This rare 17th century fire back is in okay condition with visible surface wear and a repaired crack to the central section, which can be seen in the images. Cast in the late 17th century, this rare 17th century fire back originates from northwest Germany and was crafted specifically for the Dutch market. The central panel features an allegorical representation of Peace, a powerful symbol marking the end of the Dutch-Spanish War in 1648.

Richly detailed fruit and garland motifs frame the scene, while the presence of a salamander at the base, an emblem of the French monarchy, makes this rare 17th century fire back especially rare and striking. The upper crest is crowned with a bold lion’s face, while scrolling dolphins and abundant fruits add drama and elegance throughout. This rare 17th century fire back would serve beautifully as a showstopping feature in a period fireplace or as a decorative architectural statement. If this rare 17th century fire back doesn’t interest you, we offer a diverse selection of antiques throughout our showroom which can be viewed online or come in today!
