This is an antique shelf that looks like a fireplace or hearth accessory for holding a kettle or tea pot. The shelf does slide up and down if I've taken the photos in the right orientation. It has been hand made from wrought iron with a twisty and swirly sort of pattern.
From a Victorian or earlier large open fire place - range.
No maker's marks.
In collectable condition with normal signs of age and use wear.
The metal ware is a little tarnished.
Please see pictures for more details and visual confirmation of condition.
It measures approx. 16 inches x 8 and 1/2 inches x 8 inches.
My stock ref: U9

Scale is usually an English 1 penny coin which is 20mm in diameter which is just short of 7/8ths of an inch in diameter, or a universal Coke can, and we all know how big those are.
If you see A/F = a/f in the title or description it means "as found" condition which may have scuffs, scratches and damage. In relation to all my listings it does not mean " about fine ". I have used A/F for " as found " for 45 years.
