Cast iron fireplace back with grate for fire basket
It stands on 4 feet. The front ones are beautifully elaborated in claw and ball form. The back pair is with wheels, suggesting the grate was meant to be portable and movable
The back is stylishly decorated with an oval rosette in Georgian/Federal taste
