The original design of this fireback is thought to have been cast at the Pine Grove furnace in approximately 1770-1780, located in south central Pennsylvania. The urn and flower design was one of the most popular designs for firebacks in the late 18th century America. This fireback features a beautiful matte black water-based paint which helps circumvent rusting during transportation. During the sand casting process, some slight imperfections may have been made visible. These are easily removed by using a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper. If there are bare spots on the finish, you can hide them by using the Williams Stove Polish (sold separate). You can also use this polish yearly to give make it look like new! If you want to position this fireback upright, slightly forwards or backwards instead of against the rear hearth wall, then you can use the unique Safe-T-Boots (sold separate). These feet work with many fireplace log accessories including: cast iron grates, wrought iron grates, andirons (fire-dogs), or gas log systems.
