Item Description

A finely made late 19th century wrought iron overthrow finished in black paint.

Dating from circa 1890, this beautiful antique gate overthrow has stood the test of time, beautifully detailed with scrolls and completed with an elegant arched top.

Of the Victorian era, it will look spectacular as a gate overthrow or on its stand as an item of decorative sculpture in an period style garden.

Wrought Iron Gate Overthrow

Decorative ironwork made from wrought iron has stood the test of time. This traditional method of craftsmanship sees the metal heated to a high temperature and then hammered into shape by a blacksmith’s hand, creating a robust and durable finish.

The more wrought iron is worked, the stronger it becomes, making some of the most ornate garden ironwork some of the strongest. Large scale commercial production of wrought iron products ended in the mid 1970s due to the expensive and time-consuming nature of blacksmithing, making wrought iron items true antiques, showcasing talented craftsmanship of the past.

CONDITION REPORT
Good structural condition. Recent years been shotblasted, primed and top coated. Minor areas of rust showing through.
